My connection has dropped 4 times already today ... 1400, 1730, 2000, 2015. When connection available ... Virgin Website under reconstruction ??? (No help there).

150 Phone number  ... because of COVID  ... call centres closed.

Where is the resilience in this network?

Nightmare continues .....

I had an appointment, sent via text, on 8th September. I thought that the problem had gone away , so cancelled the appointment.

However, the dropped connection problem has returned. Then this morning, 10 September at 01:49, I received an email about this forum reply, regarding an engineer visit. Is this another appointment?

I have tried finding an appointment on my virgin media account .... but does not appear to be one there.

I have called the 150 number  ... but cannot get past the secure account password ..... even though I have changed it ....twice!!!

I tried carrying out the recommended Service Status page broadband tests .... but they also now FAIL to complete, even although Ihave a broadband connection at the moment  .......

"Your service
Technical error  Something's gone wrong with the test."

Hi Jayellarr,

I'm sorry to hear that your broadband issues have returned and that you didn't have much luck when calling through to our helpline.

From this end, I can see that the issue is definitely still present, and so I have arranged another engineer appointment for you. 

Please don't hesitate to get back in touch if you need any further assistance.
