.@virginmedia Broadband down - phone line states because of 'improvements'- not expected back until 3pm. Why was there no notice so I could arrange to work from alternate location? How do I get warning in future?

@virginmedia Yes, it’s the email address that Virgin gave them for setting up the o2 mobile account. I spoke to o2 this morning and they’re having trouble changing it or even sending a text to us for security purposes to the number we are porting because that is now inactive.

@OliverStanding @virginmedia It's not a great self serve option and poor customer experience. I have an issue trying to remove a service from my current package. Cant be done digitally or remotely. Only via phone which even then very few of the advisors have the levels of authority to amend your package.

Hello @BarclaysUK, phoned you for ten successive days and it’s an hour long queue, been into branch, you can’t sort the issue, tried chat via the app, you don’t talk mortgages on the app. You are beginning to reach peak Virgin Media for incompetence, I’m sorry, this is appalling.

@virginmedia I was told to log into the Myo2 app to change it myself, but I have been sent no login details and of course if the email address is incorrect it won’t be recognised if I try to register. O2 said we would receive texts with updates on number port timeline but had no communication

@virginmedia Yes, I've called this number over a dozen times already! The same advice of "restart your router". As if I hadn't already done it before... Also 2 engineers have visited and they haven't fixed the issue, do you still reckon that's a fault on my side and not in your network?

@virginmedia No help required. It was just a source of mild amusement that for years your authorisation codes for bill payments always started 004, so I was a bit taken aback to discover you’d changed it.

(@chunnage) reported
@virginmedia It's an issue in the area. Company scripts (not just you) need to understand that customers know how to reboot their equipment, check status online w/o needing to be told. The issue then was it was impossible to report the fault to your bot. In this case, the network kept 1/

@virginmedia The hub is outdated though, and I can’t just use my own modem router for Virgin. What’s changed in the last week that’s made this become extremely unstable? Was there a firmware update pushed out to hubs?
