@virginmedia Sorry, I have done as above. It is still agonisingly slow. Cannot access emails properly. Cannot send attachments. It is the broadband that is the problem. TV is fine.

@virginmedia So, 3 phone calls over 50 mins all cut off! All I wanted to do was pay off a handset and upgrade a contract. Customer service 0/10!

@InTheseHeels Have you tried turning it on and off again? .....OK in all seriousness it happens to me on my LAN . I concluded as I'm on a domestic connection, Virgin Media , I suspect they refresh the network to loose dormant connections periodically and I get booted off for a few secs

@virginmedia Well clearly not. The customer service agent I'm speaking to has managed to move it 4th August. This guy has been the most helpful, kind and actually done what he said he would. Setting up Internet in a new home should not be as challenging, frustrating or upsetting as this.

@virginmedia I have, constantly yesterday and today - and until about 15 minutes ago it had been claiming there was no problem in my area. Now it shows that there is a problem and it is hoped it will be fixed by 8:15pm. 😱

[1] @virginmedia I have not had access to WiFi for a couple of days now. I have checked the cables, rebooted the Hub and run the final diagnostic tests several times. Still nothing. On the one hand, your system tells me that there is a wider broadband issue in the area and […]

@virginmedia My husband was shouted at on the phone , the customer service was a bad experience overall . All we hear is that an engineer is turning up when nobody bothers, and as I said before we need the internet for Work / Uni work .

@virginmedia is there an easier way to cancel your services? We have called four times and the first three times it was kept on hold for 30 mins before cutting off. This time we are still waiting at 25 mins. This is crazy! Can we get a callback?

@virginmedia Just had the most rudest customer service agents on the phone . We are still without the internet connection after 10 days , tired of waiting now and looking for a different provider . We don’t need to be spoken to like that by someone who is in the wrong job
