@virginmedia Rebooted my phone earlier, no effect. Not actually had to call or text anyone today, but my signal icon has said 'Emergency Calls Only' all day. I'll definitely check that signal strength link though, thanks.

@virginmedia ....I just want to cancel Premier Sports. The guy who answered after 30 mins was polite but your system crashed twice. Not sure it's been cancelled and don't have another spare 30 mins to call again

@virginmedia the company that’s only looks after new customers, not long serving ones. Me: paying £34 for vivid100. New customers £29 or £34 for vivid200. VM customer services, well you can have vivid200 for only £54. 😳🤬

@TrainedPengling @virginmedia The problem I have with this, is that whenever their broadband has gone down, so had my mobile with them at same time. Like when it all went down nationwide earlier this month. Having free 4g when you actually can't connect is kinda pointless lol

@virginmedia I didn't realise when I negotiated a deal I'd be automatically entitled to no compensation and rubbish customer services. Lesson learnt.

@virginmedia No, everything on there is telling me 'very good'. But! Ironically, during this very exchange, my signal has popped up (although it's now not as strong as when I started writing this Tweet). Looks like me looking at the website has scared it into working. :D

@virginmedia Thanks for response. It seems better this morning. All I needed to know is that it was a Virgin issue, not an issue with my hub.

@virginmedia Nothing has happened today, I'm just commenting on your offer to give all broadband customers free mobile 4g when your broadband goes down. Whenever my broadband had gone down, so has my cellular connection also.

@virginmedia Ran a test on the super hub itself. Its resolution to the Wi-Fi is to move close to it. Am 6 foot from it !

@virginmedia Is there no discretion or flex on this?Whilst ordinarily I’d take out a new contract, I can’t afford to be tied into a contract that I will have to cancel early & incur cancellation fees, on the sale of the property by the Landlord.

@virginmedia Your online tech guy got me to reset my hub and said that would sort it?!?! Whooopie we reset it all the time. Still have the same issues

@virginmedia Yep. All the rooms say Great except one which is poor. It’s more the connection dropping out we want to sort, the speed isn’t great but we need the service especially working from home

@virginmedia The 5GHz band had forgotten its name and was using what looked like a MAC address instead. So it was broadcasting but I couldn't connect because the SSID was wrong. I don't know why. I reset the network name in the control panel and now it's showing again on my devices. Thanks!

@virginmedia Well I would if I can actually speak to someone from Virgin. Are you able to arrange a call as I have several questions about this? Eg 1. We have the new router Gig 1 router plugged in. Can you confirm this is activated your end? If activated - why is the connectivity so bad?
