Hi guys,
I used to have "Unlimited mins + Unlimited data" SIM £32 a month.
Then in October 2021 I combined my Virgin Mobile with my Virgin Media Services and was moved to "Oomph Unlimited data SIM", so I just have one monthly payment now that covers my phone, broadband, mobile.
Since the pandemic started and I had to work from home I usually use my mobile in tethering mode to tether my laptop to. (My home broadband really hasn't ever been good enough to cope with working from home and doing zoom video conferencing). And my Virgin Mobile tethering has always been good enough for me to work from home and to do zoom video conferencing on my laptop - so I've just used that - unlimited data has made this possible of course!
But in the last few days (since Monday 22nd Nov 2021), I've noticed that the internet quality through tethering has been awful. Zoom calls keep freezing, and the sound quality breaks up and my internet connection on my laptop (which tethers to the mobile) is intermittent.
Is anyone else experiencing the same thing? Is there anything you can think of to explain this? Maybe its a general thing or maybe its related to me moving to the Oomph package?
