Wi-Fi not working

Since Sunday our virgin media gig 1 hub has been flashing intermediately and also going on and off, we had an email from virgin media stating that they would be doing essential maintenance work on Tuesday, this morning it is still the same very very limited. If sometimes at all no Internet access no App Store available and no streaming services. Also The Alexa is also not working so no Internet radio this is not good virgin media and I hope that this will reflect on next months subscription charges. As at the moment, it would be quicker to send a letter with a carrier pigeon , I would appreciate it if someone from virgin media would get in touch with me to tell us what earth is going on. Thank you.

  • Thanks for all your help, you should work for VM I think they need all the help they can get. The crazy thing is as the day has gone on. I can stream the apps Apple TV are coming back it’s as though it’s coming back in chunks that sounds weird once again. thanks for your help,

      Have ypu tried the local faults line ... - 0800 561 0061 - which usually gives the most up to date info. and tells you of more local issues and fix estimates, down to street cab/ postcode level.

        Hi, and thanks for getting back to me. I have just rang that number it did a check and it told me that there is no service issues in my area which is wrong because I cannot stream any of the apps. Also when I switch over to Apple TV I can still not play anything just keeps hanging. I’ve also tried it on Disney+ Paramount plus, I have rebooted the hub so many times I’ve lost count so there is a big issue. Thanks for giving me that number I will see if someone from virgin media will actually get back to me to tell me what an earth is going on everything was fine up until the weekend. We was then told that they would be doing essential maintenance work yesterday. I think they still need to be doing the work because it is not right. Thanks 

        regards Pete
