@virginmedia It’s happening periodically on a wired connection (not wifi related). When it happens upstream drops to 150-300Kbps and downstream drops massively too. No known issues reported in my area, but it’s been happening for a few days now.

@virginmedia I’m struggling paying my monthly fee & now notice it’s gone up this month as my discount offer has run out. Can you please offer me another loyalty discount or I may have to cancel. I also work for the NHS in case you offer staff any discount. Thanks in advance, Paul

@OwenJones84 @virginmedia @JeremyVineOn5 Usually a router issue of inefficient switching between bands 2.4GHz and 5GHz Can go into router settings and explicitly set it to 2.4GHz (lower speed/better range) or 5GHz (higher speed/poorer range)

@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?

@virginmedia it's been 3 hours and we still don't have WiFi. We shouldn't have to wait 48 hours of bad service for a refund when this **** happens every few days 😵#virginmediadown

@virginmedia Currently waiting in the Q Turns out you ring and it tests then asks you to reset. Once that dosent work you ring back. System recognises at that point your still having issues. And offers to talk with a person. Thanks again for your attention in this Paul

@virginmedia Probably not looking at the full conversation history then. Problem not between cabinet and house. However engineer forgot again to put notes down. Said to contact him and he abs his line manager would ensure resolution, however not returned calls or messages

@virginmedia It’d be great if somebody could investigate that without me having to go through the support playbook of all the steps first. I need the connection for work.

@virginmedia Hi, yes - it's a long story but involves a switch to O2 mobile that isn't saving money, and the new TV service that took 3 weeks of calls etc to install. It's not resolved yet by a long way, unfortunately!

@BackOnTrack__ @virginmedia It's terrible! For the last 2 weeks hardly any internet connection @virginmedia !! It even took me 15 minutes to tweet this message due to losing connection every 2 minutes.

@virginmedia How is that a fix?! It’s exchanging one problem for another, i’d be exchanging no on demand for losing all my recordings!!! When it’s probably nothing at all to do with the box!!!
