Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England@virginmedia That's my issue; in terms of service, it is resolved. Thr cable was previously buried (all be it not that deep), & I would have liked it to be again. My suggestion was leave slack so I could bury it. That message wasn't passed on to the 3rd party engineer. What would you advise?

Katie Purkiss (@KatiePurkiss) reported from Southend-on-Sea, EnglandAfter 20 years of being with @virginmedia and Telewest before that, I’ve finally decided to jump ship. Broadband has been horrendous for a couple of weeks and constant issues. 😔. #TimeforaChange

Nick Miller 🇺🇦 (@NickMillerUK) reported from South Ockendon, England@virginmedia somehow you have reset my Dad’s Virgin media box, LAN seems to be off and the wifi on it is back on. This is rubbish because we have network setup there with much better hardware than your box. Now none of it works and I am hundreds of miles from his house. Why?

Dr Andrew Fleming 🇬🇧 🏴 (@Andrew007Uk) reported from Sutton at Hone, England@virginmedia Though I am dyslexic I have painstakingly done this on multiple devices and have photos to show It - not posting them publicly but it does not recognise that password 😢 A search on line suggests the problem is not unique. I have one hour to call the manufacturer if you advice.

John M Hunt (@Johnmhunt) reported@virginmedia your V360 upgrade system is broken. It took me 3 days of chat to arrange my upgrade and I’ve ordered it for my dad and he’s not received the remotes despite ordering on 2 May. I can’t face the pain of going through a chat and details authorisation again.
