I think last week I got notified that internet in my area would be somwhat affected due to maitanance. Then I was notified that maintanance was over and i kept getting disconnected afterwards. So I restarted my router and internet went back to normal. Or so I thought. I was getting quite high latency in games and I wasnt sure what it was about, as I could still watch YouTube just fine. Well, today I tried to upload a small video to Youtube and it took 30 minutes. I ran a speed test and realized that even down Download speed is normal, my upload speed is extremely slow.

My postcode is TW19 7EU if that helps at all. I'm not sure what else to do, as my computer is connected to the router via a cable and i have already reset it.

Where abouts are you? I’ve got a similar issue in Northampton

Im still waiting on Virgin Media to fix it. It's been over a week and it has not improved at all!! This is what it is like right now... and they will probably take the weekend off...

Hi nickpeyon, 

 

Thank you for your posts to us here on the Community. 

 

I have taken a look at the account from our side and can confirm that an outage relating to low SNR (Signal to Noise Ratio) has been identified in your area.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience caused by this. If you are still experiencing issues following the estimated fix time, please do let us know. 

 

Thank you

Hi there, thanks for the reply. What's pissing me off is that I've been talking to your customer service live chat every couple of days, they tell me it will get fixed in 2 days, 2 days later the problem is worse and it will get fixed in 2 days time, and then in 2 days time it isnt fixed, and they tell me it will be another 2 days... well, its been 20 days already and earlier today my download speed was down to 160mbs (should be over 200) and my upload speed at 0.01mbs. In other words, everything is getting worst as times passes by, while you guys continue to make empty promises and postponding the fix (which, btw, was just fine until u guys decided to do "essential work" and f* up the whole thing)!!!

I understand its not your fault Natalie, and thank you for the reply. But, regardless of compensation for the down period (which is only fair), I still need the service... and I'm not getting it. Business exists to solve problems, not to cause more problems and make empty promises, postponding the fix all the time - 20 days of frustrations that have been made worst by lying to me every 2 days, over n over again.

Hi @nickpeyon

 

Thanks for the reply

 

I completely understand your frustration and my apologies for the inconvenience - how is your connection / speeds today?
