  • dannyrobbo82 Danny Robinson (@dannyrobbo82) reported from Wallsend, England

    @virginmedia understand that like every other business that you’re short staffed with the pandemic, but the speed of internet recently has been shocking. Website is useless, community help is useless. Don’t want to ring up, yet they’re happy to still take my money every month.

    @virginmedia hi, all I want to do is see if there is an outage in my area as I've no internet. But I need to sign in to do that and I need to reset my password. And when I try to do that it goes to an error page saying 'oops something's broken'

  • GregorJClark Gregor Clark 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@GregorJClark) reported

    @virginmedia That’s what I did earlier & had to hang up. Is there any way you can DM me a working link to a chat session? I don’t have the energy for half an hour of hold music.
