-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia See thread above, nothing changes except the time of the estimated fix. It must be very localised as not everyone in my area is affected. So if it is damaged cables, I haven’t seen anyone out repairing them over the weekend, it’s a joke
-
Rick Leeming - Beaker (@BeakerRick) reported from Preston, England@virginmedia Yes and yes. I even wiped it totally a week or so ago. My wife as an iPhoneSE and is experiencing the same problem.
-
Liz Tuite (@tuite_liz) reported from Atherton, England@virginmedia I looked and that says it’s from the day I registered the total loss of service which was yesterday but really it should be from Friday afternoon when I did the online chat. If I DM you can you check?
-
Richard Foster (@fos100) reported from New Longton, EnglandWho in their right mind schedules planned maintenance for a Monday morning and says it could go on until three pm? Oh yeah, @virginmedia - cracking service as always #workfromhome #muppets

Wightpie (@wightpie) reported from Blackburn, England@virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant
-
Anne McCormack (@1AnneMcCormack) reported from Billinge Chapel End, England@virginmedia I tell them to ring 999 or 0151 709 6010 if they want to report a crime. They hang up but they sound South Asian and their English is poor. I worry about other oaps being conned. Good luck chasing them.
-
Mrs Smith (@SmithysMaud) reported from St Helens, England@virginmedia I reported a total loss of service on 31/8. It was finally fixed this morning. After no shows, lies and weeks between visits. They have not even offered to cover the cost of my last 3 dd’s which I wish I hadn’t paid as I had no service whatsoever
-
