@virginmedia epic broadband, crap TiVo ... shocking my box every couple of weeks / less doesn’t work and I have to restart. The package I pay for isn’t value for money and calling up to report issues is painful, 35+ mins I was on for last time!

@virginmedia The issue has been constant for 2 weeks. Option 2 at the second press is when calling about an account different to the one I'm calling from.

@virginmedia There are a couple of threads I've contributed to. I'll try to post the one I looked at this morning and posted the same comment I tweeted. My point is that it shouldn't be a one at a time fix.

@virginmedia The issue that this related to was actually resolved… however things have got a hell of a lot worse since! I vowed never to use VM years ago due to poor customer service and I am remembering why!

@virginmedia On a wired connection I get anywhere between 300 and 600 download and still between 0.1 and 2 upload. There has been outage after outage according to your technical team but I don’t see how this can continue happening for 2 months and you think it’s alright?!

@virginmedia It’s not showing any issues, but they are intermittent. So it will just drop randomly for 5-45 mins sometimes

@virginmedia The problem is still continuing with Telegram, I don't seem to have a problem with any other services. Are you able to check if there's a root cause for the issue or if there is any configuration I need to perform on the VM router? It's on default settings at the moment.

@VirginMediaIE The sound has been stopping on playback of #VirginMedia tv channels for weeks. We have turned it off and on, checking connections, etc. There does not seem to be any problem with live tv. Can you please fix this?
