@virginmedia why does my wifi keep cutting out every 15 mins for about 2 mins then come back? Not great when I work from home and my meetings cut out midway through…

@simonnread @virginmedia I'm having the same issue. For the period of lockdown I could broadly rely on the signal to my home office. The last 2/3 months I haven't and I am constantly having to tether my mobile at my expense. The router hasn't moved and neither has my office. The service has just worsened

@virginmedia Hi guys, I’ve put my UK sim card in my phone while I’m back in the country (I’m still paying the contract) - but I’ve had the sim in for 9 hours and I’m still not receiving any service. Can you assist please?

@virginmedia @primevideouk - Why does @BBCiPlayer on your devices not support the 4K football feeds? It only works through the app on my television which isn't particularly ideal.

@virginmedia can we actually talk to someone that can help rather than pass us on? it’s a joke at this point.

@virginmedia One of your tech engineers confirmed the problem in our local area and following a conversation with customer service they kept trying to get me to create multiple networks for speed. This wasn’t the problem, the problem was amplifiers in the local area!!

@Jake_BHughes @virginmedia apparently we have a blockage where they need to connect us, which is what we would need fixing by thursday. being that unreliable we decided to cancel everything with them fully. a shame because what they offered was great. customer service department is not easy to get round 😭

@virginmedia have to be the MOST unhelpful when it comes to customer service. I’ve been going round and round and round for an issue your technical engineer has already highlighted!!!!

@virginmedia @O2 @peterkay_co_uk I think your service is a laughing show. Years and nothing ever fixed finally time to move on.

I've raised a concern with @Ofcom over the renewal prices and contract prices from @virginmedia Why a new customer can pay 1/3 the cost of my renewal is beyond me! - It also costs me more if I cancel services. And its not like swapping between BT Openreach provers when swapping.

@virginmedia Hi there. I rang up this morning and was told someone in a technical role would call back. I've got no issues in area showing using that link, but others have shared ones they have found online themselves. Someone else was told they are updating 5g in the area. However, I can't

@virginmedia 6pm, but basically a whole day with doubtless many houses with people trying to work from home, this isn't great. Particularly after two months of SNR issues.
