    Well done to the engineers @virginmedia for sorting out my internet in Earl’s Court (ahead of time as usual). I appreciate that people have genuine problems, but we need to keep a sense of proportion. Especially compared with brave Ukrainians who face far worse troubles than us.

    @virginmedia Issue is still ongoing. I have called the helpline twice and after dialling my password and getting a dial tone, I have been cut off both times before speaking to anyone. Are your phone lines broken?

  • markhayo
    MarcHayo. Former ditherer. Now pro hard-changed EU (@markhayo) reported from Kensington, England

    Respect to the engineers @virginmedia Consistently maintaining such a complex network is a tough job, especially at a time of exceptional demand. Whingeing the instant something as advanced as an internet network goes wrong is such a self-regarding 1st World problem. Shame on us

  • Anthony_Lonres
    Anthony Payne (@Anthony_Lonres) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Your online status reports no faults but as I said in the thread, I have called your support centre at least 10 times & they confirm there is a fault which has been the case since the 2nd of March. I am assured, every time I call, that it will be fixed within 7 days. It never is

    @virginmedia I have not internet in my flat in EC1V9ET since Monday. No explanation no comment and after calling the Customer Service team every day for an update today I was told that I should not be working from home if I’m not a business.! So that’s just 👍 great. That’s why 1

  • FoodwiseWomen
    Foodwise Woman (@FoodwiseWomen) reported from Kensington, England

    I’m trying to live chat to @virginmedia to see if they can install a Hub 5 router in our area as Apple reporting privacy problems with existing router. I’m on hold for a ‘live’ agent but their Terri Triage BOT requires me to press the ‘Yes I’ll hold button’ every 40secs. 😱😱😱

  • GabrielaLungu
    Gabriela Lungu (@GabrielaLungu) reported from Kensington, England

    @virginmedia Right… in the meantime I trust you won’t charge us. No service should at least mean no pay. If not also a bonus for the disruption and the frustration caused 😑

    @virginmedia @PlayAvengers @Arekkz Bayta codes???Doesn’t he mean Beeta codes? For ****’s sake can no one speak proper British English any more. People at Starbucks -‘Can I get...’. Others ‘my bad’, ‘different THAN’, ‘a bunch of people’, ‘ON the week-end’, ‘ON Trafalgar Square’, ‘advertizement’ (my son said this)!

    @youfibre , do you know roughly when the service will be available where I live? Before the Virgin Media buy out I could see I was on the final phase and now it’s showing I am an early bird again! I can see virgin fibre have also installed new cabinets in my street!

    @virginmedia The service has now been maintained but on us to ensure that's the case. You shouldn't have had one of your sales reps pressure my mother night after night without checking a service could be provided within your budget

    Legal Eagle. (@ACLegalServices) reported

    @virginmedia I am seriously thinking of leaving Virgin after 25 years or so as you are about to double my bill to £62.00 a month for speeds of 120mbps. Any recommendations to replace them with a reliable service, that I have had with Virgin. Difficult to talk to them on phone
