    Hey @bt_uk I’ve just had a call from a lady claiming to be BT Open Reach & there is a problem with my internet connection, I need to access my computer whilst on the phone with me to show me and fix the problem. As I’m with @virginmedia I’m guessing this is a scam. Am I right?

  • KevinAtp Kevin Daniels (@KevinAtp) reported

    @virginmedia Slow on both counts...should we email in our test results?

  • WelshChris1 Chris Richards🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 (@WelshChris1) reported

    @virginmedia I need to upgrade my router. I was on hold for 2 hours on Friday before getting cut off I then tried the online help where someone tried to sell me a new package before transfer me to technical where I was on hold for another 3 hours. All I want is a router upgrade.

  • TheDonSoul1 TheDonSoul (@TheDonSoul1) reported

    @virginmedia The issue remains. I have to turn my router off at least twice a day to reconnect as my devices are connecting intermittently. Simple browsing on mobile device always halts and keep having to switch off WiFi on mobile then switch back on. It’s been like this for the past year

  • artie_dalzell Artie Dalzell (@artie_dalzell) reported

    @p0twash @pompeyhedge @virginmedia I receive the same message. A bubbly chatty customer rep texts me to tell me everything is grand. I consider this approach to be severe mental abuse. Telling him that I have no internet means nothing. He responded by saying he is glad I'm satisfied with the service.

  • PranavPatel76 Pranav Patel (@PranavPatel76) reported

    @virginmedia Down again, your service is awful

  • DANTHEMAGPIE DANALDINHO 🇸🇦 (@DANTHEMAGPIE) reported

    @virginmedia @PlayStationUK @AskPlayStation My PS5 wont connect to the wifi, any help? LAN works fine, but connecting to wifi gives me error message NW-102383-7

  • Peggy_Baker Peggy Baker (@Peggy_Baker) reported

    @virginmedia My WiFi is down and says ‘weak security’ I’ve followed the guidance page and it hasn’t fixed the problem. I work from home and need the WiFi working.

  • mangauki Marie Buckley (@mangauki) reported

    @virginmedia @DanniBaker2 I spent over a week on that service. When the rep can't deal with your issue they drop the chat and back to square one. I wrote 2 letters of complaint and no reply as well. Awful company. Never even gave me the measly £10 compensation either. I spent hours on the phone too

  • Jennyoleary90 Jenny O'Leary (@Jennyoleary90) reported

    @virginmedia my internet has died for no apparent reason? Is there connectivity issues in KT19?

  • TottenhamBlade Glen Cansdale (@TottenhamBlade) reported

    @virginmedia has gone down again 24 hours after it started working again. The first time I was a bit annoyed with it happening, now I'm seriously angry with it. Definitely moving back to @skytv now. Don't think I'm paying my bill until this gets sorted properly.
