Hi - for about a month or two the street i live on has been reporting disconnect issues. All virgin customers (we have a street whatsapp group with about 30 virgin customers on) report the disconnect. It happens about 2-3 times a day and lasts about 5 minutes each time. 

We have reported this to Virgin who say there is no fault in the area? However - speaking to thier support is impossible, as they can't come off script. 

We obviously need an engineer but not sure how we can request one if support are so poor? Any ideas welcome. I will send this link to the street whatsapp hoepfully getting them to upvote (if that is a thing).

With working from home, i ahve been cut off from countless calls due to this. It is extremely poor and will soon result in a lot of lost customers. In total, the down time from the past 2 weeks has been 2 hours according to a connection monitor we have put in place. 

Thanks

Tom

I have replied to your comment on this issue in the other thread you responded in - set up the BQM.

Thanks, set one up. Will get more results and call Monday to cancel. Such poor service at the moment. Shame, been with them an age.

You would normally be hit with an early exit fee (unless minimal contract period has ended) but as there has been a recent price hike (you should have had a letter or eMail) you have 30 days from that receipt to cancel for free. Still have a 30-days notice though.

See what a couple of days of BQM show.
