-
Melissa Burns (@lissaburns) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia down in #Basingstoke RG21 - call to find out its out between 10am and 3pm due to network improvements. Surely such a significant outage he should come with prior warning - how to damage #CX ! Could have been a great #CX if communicated well...

Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia No real explanation, just he can’t do it today. I was surprised he already knew of the problem but didn’t stop his installer coming. I spoke to lots of folks today when I called, no one could give me an idea.
-
Tony Phillips (@Loafite) reported from Basingstoke, England@SkyHelpTeam hope all is well, @virginmedia have just increased my bill again for broadband (£32 increase per month in the last 10 months, disgraceful) are there any deals for a Sky customer for broadband?

Paul Bullock (@pBullox) reported from Thatcham, England@virginmedia moved house today, supposed to have been reconnected but you have a problem you knew about for days. Arrive and tell me not today mate! I’ve gotta go get data from #Vodafone now. After 20 years, it’s like my wife leaving.

The Big Gay Review (@thebiggayreview) reported from Basingstoke, EnglandWiFi went down in the middle of watching Halloween Ends. 4G signal also unresponsive. Stuck on very slow 4G. Virgin Media say it’s possibly a hardware fault and want to send someone Monday. No. I’m not waiting 72 hours with no internet. I’ll implode.
-
Cathy Alexander (@CathyTVNews) reported from Thatcham, EnglandWhat's the problem @virginmedia ? No broadband all day in RG18. Work day wasted. Your signal check says "problems" but no updates. Can't get thro to customer service.
-
Stuart Kearney (@skearney7) reported from Basingstoke, England@virginmedia Not really. I have made arrangements to bring my account up to date and close it as I am a responsible person. However as a result of the U Switch service not working. I have paid you £150 extra for a service that I have not used. So from my point of view I am very frustrated
