    @virginmedia I need to order a booster ASAP! The ‘100MB’ WiFi i apparently have doesn’t even reach my office upstairs. No surprises when I go to order one online there’s a waiting list...how long am I likely to wait? Surely if all your customers need a booster, there’s an issue??

    @davebish @virginmedia Singularly the most sanctifying dynamic in my life over past year... endlessly broken zoom calls, or burning though mobile data... feeling your pain!

  • evac90
    Eva Collingwood (@evac90) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia I’ve tried to call but just get automated, I’ve tried livechat but they say I can’t order a booster through that service. What am I mean to do? I just want a lead time on the booster. Why can nobody give me that?

    @virginmedia any reason why you still haven’t fixed our phone lines? Been down for 3 months now so I’ll be expecting a reimbursement. Also expect a reimbursement due to the fact your failing to supply the minimum download speed

    .@virginmedia my Virgin TV Go app hasn’t worked in 2 months. No luck uninstalling and reinstalling it, nor when I called your tech support for help. Any ideas?

    @virginmedia I want to upgrade as I had problems with my income but I can’t do it online don’t say nothing about my next package it’s. A disgrace I can’t phone as it cost me

  • feyipuk
    Phil (@feyipuk) reported from Crayford, England

    @virginmedia Signal as a whole; router drops to less than 1kbps and remote IP changes like it's trying to reconnect. A power cycle seems to correct it but think I'll need some watchdog program and remote switch to do that if the signal drops and I'm away from the house.

    @virginmedia How about just provide me a link to download the less than 10mb of pdf? Admin fee to provide a link or email a customer of over 3years? What have you offered me in return for the many times of INTERRUPTED service when I’ve had to turn to my mobile hotspot?
