    be kind and be nice. (@robinsontonyLIR) reported from Colchester, England

    @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

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @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!

    @virginmedia Hi. Please read the thread. One App doesn't work properly, my TV box is generally fine. From a quick Google I can see it is a problem for other people with Virgin Media TiVo boxes too where the @All4 app doesn't load programmes. I can access the app and all the menu screens.

  • steevXIII
    Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

    Anyone else have a problem with All4 app on @virginmedia Can access the menu / home page but anytime I try to actually watch a programme I get a black screen & 4 dots endlessly blinking, as if buffering, but the show never, eeeevveerrr appears... On Googling, seems common issue?

  • steevXIII
    Steve Tovey (@steevXIII) reported from Colchester, England

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Yes done as above. Still agonising slow. Cannot send attachments on emails.

    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia how long will it take to fix my internet connection. CO1 area. Main problem is a slow speed for emails.

    kenny wilson (@kennythekilt) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia Your staff should put the customer first pass the enquiry to another team member take break late or offer a call back

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia I will try again by unplugging the router etc. However other people living near me are also experiencing problems. It is not just me.

  • theresahiggins
    Theresa Higgins (@theresahiggins) reported from Colchester, England

    @virginmedia It is slow in all three of the devices I use.

    @virginmedia TV and phone are fine. It is the broadband that is still slow despite the reset.

    @VirginMediaIE ******* absolutely disgusting service. When it’s good it’s good, really good… but connection drops 7-8 times per day. It’s a real shame I can’t avail of sky in my area. Moving home soon so fingers crossed I can tell virgin media to go do one.

    @Ghost_In_Exile @virginmedia While we are on the subject of complaining about atrocious customer service. I've been waiting about 5 months to get my faulty @Samsung TV repaired or replaced.

    @electronicarts Virgin Media are incompetant twits & have killed my ancient email address. They can't fix it, & I can't access my EA Origin Account without a verification link being sent to that e-mail. I seem to be at an impasse. Your online help doesn't help! Any ideas please?

    @virginmedia I've never tried wired as the modem is in a different room.

    @virginmedia Your company cannot just decide someone is their customer and invent a contract for services that do not exist and then send bills for hundreds of £s and demand £75/month. The error has been pointed out innumerable times but no action is taken, merely threats and rude phone calls

    @virginmedia you sent me a new hub 5 on Monday. Today I got a text saying you've activated it and now my old hub doesn't work. I've connected the new hub and there's a fault. Was told I'd get a call from an engineer within 4 hrs and haven't. Please reactivate my old hub asap
