-
Malcolm Sillick (@Malcolm_Sillick) reported@LeilaniDowding @EE Lellani, it's not just EE, it's everyone. Even those on cable (Virgin Media) still have to have the phone plugged into the router. Seems like a good idea, until you get a power cut (which can be supported by a back-up battery, which is NOT given as standard) If the internet goes down, then so does your phone. Great if you have a mobile, but if you live in an area with a poor mobile signal, so reply on 'Wi-Fi calling' in the house, then when the internet goes down, you also have no mobile service. It's called progress!!

Magnolia’s Art (@Magnoli23215778) reported@virginmedia As I have an engineer coming out on average every 6wks for last 18months, am now wanting to leave them. Saying I’ve to pay £1300 to get out of my remaining 14months contract. Anyone else having issues? Incompetent lot!
-
Tom J Jarvis (@TomJJarvis) reported@virginmedia I was sold Gig2 2Gbps symmetric in June. The upload was never delivered at the contracted speed. After three separate calls got nowhere, your Faults team corrected it, then applied a £6/month surcharge for the speed I had already bought. 1/

Pure Hearted Human (@Graelwyn) reported@GoonerJo2201 @virginmedia It doesn't matter much now. As I intend to take my life as what virgin media don't know. Is that my mother and father abused me most of my life. And maybe since I never got her unconditional love as she loved only through money. I wanted to use the only thing she gives me now. Since she wouldn't call virgin to explain. As she cares more about my brother's partner's mother having cancer. Than that I may have cancer. So virgin media get their payments. And I have finally given up. That is all.

Russell Frew (@rhfrew) reported@virginmedia The landing page is a pain in the backside. The user should be able to disable it if they want. Please issue a fix!
-
Martin (@lionking2014) reported@JuanSpanishfly @LPXIOP @virginmedia I know how it works I was using voip 30 years ago!... The problem is the virgin broadband is down more often than the virgin phone line... So seems like I am losing a reliable landline line to go over a dodgy broadband one!
