Horrible packet loss.- Area fault 19637577?

[skyuser]

Hey,

Hoping someone from VM can shed some light on the situation. Have had terrible packet loss issues for months on/off. Eventually, it was resolved seemed to be an area issue, however, now its back with a vengence!

I tried the chat online etc got area fault 19637577 and the status by calling 08005610061 says 'sorry some faults are more compex and may take more time...'

It's a residential service so I suppose no real SLA, but noone can give me an estimated fix time. I WFH and although the service has been fine, this recent packet loss is affecting me working from home so may have to go back into the office. (I know WFH is not covered under a residential service, it was more of a convenience rather than going to work)

The chaps/chapess's on whatsapp say don't worry you'l get compo... (I dont think I will as its not TLOSS its intermittent in nature..should they be misleading people??)

But the burning question...does anyone from VM on the board know or have info when it may/will be fixed please? This packet loss is every single day

The only thing certain is that no one responding on this forum has any better info on when the fault will be fixed. They may hav an estimated fix date/time - but that is usually on the 0800 number too and as always... its just an "estimated" fix time which means "dont really know".
