Can somebody check my BQM with Gig1
Hello, Would any of you experts like to check my BQM, please. I've been experiencing a fair bit of slow streaming and lag and the connection just generally feels a little sluggish. For the most part my house is hard wired with 2.5Gb ethernet but obviously not every device supports that. Recently my neighbour has had VM installed and they have tapped off our external brown plastic box, I questioned them and they said it would be temporary and somebody else would come to install another line but this has not happened. Well, to the best of my knowledge anyway. https://www.thinkbroadband.com/broadband/monitoring/quality/share/fc9fbfedde634eb01e057d7969f183729c300fe9 I can share logs from my hub but I'm not sure what is required.Upgrading a brand new line that was on a deal?
Last week my fibre line was fully installed and now up and running - it took about a month to actually get the install process all complete due to Xmas and new year. The contract was a gig1 deal, where you are not charged for the first 3 months. happy with the install service but with 2 people working from home and significant need for downloads, we wanted to upgrade from gig1 to gig2 to future proof too. This doesn’t seem like an option though - I’m unable to upgrade on the app or online, and I tried chat and I tried phoning. No one can do an upgrade to the current gig2 deals. it seems silly because technically I’m in the 14 day cool off period, so, theoretically I could cancel my contract and start a new one on gig2 - but that would mean waiting times and more hassle for virgin and myself. I’m effectively offering to lock myself into a new contract and pay more money on the gig2 deal but nobody seems able to help. Is this a limitation on new accounts or just a frustrating request that isn’t catered for?
Upgraded speed online, received 2x pre-contracts but no further updates
Hi, I wonder if somebody could help please? I keep looping around the live chat and feel a bit fobbed off when I do get to somebody. I upgraded online to the gig1 package that says new equipment & new contract 2 days ago now. I immediately received 2 emails, with 2 different pre contracts and numbers showing the new pricing but start date on both is TBC. It also states I have 14 days from receipt of the document to cancel if unhappy. Yesterday, I queried any updates/delivery dates for new equipment and conveniently, live chat told me an order confirmation with estimated start & delivery date takes 14 days to come through, but that my cooling off period hasn't started. Is that right? There's no change on my virgin media account and the virgin app has been failing constantly for the last week. There's also no open / outstanding orders or appointments on my account. Just don't want to find 2 increased direct debit payments taken and tied in to another full term contract with no upgrade and arguing over the cooling off terms. Thank youLonger coax cable
Hello, I’ve had Gig1 wifi for some time now and have been meaning to enquire about getting a coax cable extension to have the router moved to a more suitable place in the home. I am unable to make phone calls due to the hours I work, is there a live chat I can use to request an extension cable or do virgin employees respond on here? Any help is appreciated!
