Try @dean0 as he works there
Or I can refer you, it's £50 credit on your bill. Ping me a trust if you want that.
Although the speed was much slower I never had any signal issues with sky broadband, but with virgin, the rear of the house (kitchen is patchy, bedroom above doesn't get any) has no signal.
Might need to get a router (not sure which one) and set up an access point.

So after your tantrum in your Virgin VPN thread because it was repeatedly pointed out it was likely an issue your end and nothing to do with the ISP... it was an issue your end and nothing to do with the ISP. You’re welcome
Yes but unlike some people when I realised I was wrong, I accepted it and highlighted the fact I was wrong. I guess some people don’t have such humility.
Oh and once again...I didn’t start that thread!

For £40 it had better do! I would call prior and just check but still ask anyway whatever you're told.
Cheers, when I phoned CS, I was speaking to an Asian woman who had no idea what I was asking
but I'll be there during installation so won't let the virgin bodge it!So had a phone call from VM about my upgrade difficulties to the VVIP bundle.
Basically apologised to me, told me there was no such thing as a VVIP team for upgrades and then offered me £5/m discount on my bill for life. Every little helps

Indeed it does but double check (or get it recorded or in writing) that the £4/month is for life. I can see them removing it in a year if you're not careful.So had a phone call from VM about my upgrade difficulties to the VVIP bundle.

Top tip, I've noticed that my Loyalty Bonus expires in August (when I obviously become less loyal), this is shown on your Virgin Media billling page too.Indeed it does but double check (or get it recorded or in writing) that the £4/month is for life.

Anyone heard any more about vivid 500 standalone?
That's what I'm looking at now, something like https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ubiquiti-networks-unifi-ap-ac-lite-indoor-access-point-nw-002-uq.html
Becoming dog sick of Virgin Media. Had work in my area for the last month with frequent disconnections every day. I've been told that I won't receive any form of reimbursement as I haven't completely lost use of my TV and broadband, therefore I am receiving a partial service which doesn't fit in with Ofcom's new rules. These rules apparantley state that I have to experience total loss of service for 48 hours before I will receive any form of reimbursement.
To say I am P-ed off is an understatement.

They have a gurantee on their own website that states they promise you 50% or more of your speed, have you been getting that?
I had to jump through hoops and ended up on the vm community forums where they are 1000% better than the call centre they sorted my issue out straight away just by diagnostics from the modem which i submitted. CS in india on the other hand wanted me to run tests on my PC in safe mode script reading idiots.
