@virginmedia after reporting issues with my VM hub4 where the 5Ghz channel reverts to channel 108 it has come to my attention that this is being experienced by others. I’ve had to fact reset then manually change it to Ch40/48 then rename 2.4&5 so that my wife’s system can log 1/2

@virginmedia shocking service already thinking of cancelling, and I’ve not even been setup yet. I’d avoid, maybe I’ll talk to the other fiber in my area, I think they are a lot cheaper.

@virginmedia recently downgraded my broadband package, but my Volt package hasn’t been reapplied to my account. Can you help as O2 show it’s active, but no options on your help site that direct me to someone to fix.

@virginmedia John, please check my file. I’ve called several times, to be told somebody will contact you regarding your complaint. I ask to speak to a manger I’m told, none available. Appreciate this is not your fault buts it’s an utter **** show. I’ll let @Ofcom take the lead from here.

@virginmedia you know when a customer makes a complaint (twice) and you say that the customer will receive a phone call within 24-48hrs. Is this true or do you just make it up as you go along? Thanks.
