@virginmedia Both wired and not, advised to turn off and back on, diagnostics checked at your end, engineer visit, resulted in all new v6 boxes (x2) and a new internet hub also internal wiring checked and re-connected. Issue seemed to be resolved for a while but after then goes off altogether

As my @virginmedia bill is now creeping up towads 130pcm I called to cancel or negotiate. A small discount was offered. I was surprised how little effort was made to retain a customer. (‘OK, thank you for calling’). So I’ll have to switch.

@virginmedia We have not been able to access the 2G network for the last three weeks and now the 5G network is unreliable to say the least. I tried to get through to the repair team but my call was cut off due to the high volume of calls. I would like an engineer to fix the issues.

@virginmedia We are unable to access the 2G network and for the past two weeks the signal for the 5G is unreliable to say the least. I tried to get through to your repair team but I had the phone call cut off after being told there was a high volume of calls. We need an engineer to fix it.
