    @virginmedia I appreciate you trying to help. The issue is with the virgin contract being 18 months and the "new" o2 deal being 24 months and how this would impact as I looked to renegotiate in 18 months

    @virginmedia 4x since I’ve moved across from BT, the service has been completely down in my area, this in space of just a few months. This has affected exam revision, kids bedtime routines, among other things. Terrible, pathetic service and can’t wait until my contract expires!

    Ermito Fernandes (@ErmitoF) reported

    Frustrating internet outage all day from @virginmedia while neighbors stayed connected! 😡 ​Had to cancel crucial work meetings and risk client deadlines with zero proactive suppor from service provider. ​Anyone else experiencing selective blackout?
