entrustTMF (@entrustTMF) reported@karenwi17092279 Sorry to hear that, not good 😔 Yes, we rely on these things more than we realise... I had forgotten the printer, the TV box, my Spotify, heating controller, etc. all use the WiFi and workarounds for all of them need to be fashioned or just abandoned until @virginmedia fix it
-
Graham Booth (@laserblue) reported@virginmedia Hi, it seems my set top box is on the blink and my chances of watching my beloved Man City maybe at risk. I could switch to Nowtv, but that will cost me £15 for a 24hr pass. I've used the tips as featured in the trouble shooting guide. No luck. Can you help? Thanks
-

-
Turkish 🇹🇷 🏴 (@Turkish_hackney) reported@virginmedia spoke to your customer service not long ago and the person couldn’t understand me. Why do you hire people that don’t understand basic English sorry to say. And your services are rubbish by the way, I will be cancelling
-
Jason Caine Smith (@jasoncainesmith) reported@virginmedia @VirginMedia Been trying all day to fix CS1011. Your phone system won’t recognise my details due to “maintenance” so I can’t reach support.
