  • SelectedTweets Alison Rowley (@SelectedTweets) reported

    @virginmedia We have now been told tonight that the issue is with the engineer management and assignment team being based in India. We completely understand the emergency situation there, but why was this info not shared sooner instead of related cancellations with no explanation?

  • LaurenceBraith1 Laurence Braithwaite (@LaurenceBraith1) reported

    Called IT support again. A bright spark had spoken to a colleague in Leeds who had seen similar problems with other @Virginmedia customers. He told me that the @virginmedia hub was 'throttling' my VPNs because it did not recognise them.  5 of 15
