Virgin media full outage & compensation
Firstly, the outage is still ongoing All internet & TV were lost at around 9:40pm on Saturday night. It is now Monday 1:30pm & still no internet etc. Have had text stating it is expected to be fixed TOMORROW by ~1:00pm, so that'll be a total of ~64hrs without internet or TV, can't even watch any recordings I have registered loss of service, so I guess by 9:40pm tonight I would expect this would count the start of compensation EXCEPT I've re-read the automatic compensation page online g it seems the fact that compensation is apparently if you have loss for 2 WORKING days Is this right ?, surely compensation should be if loss for 2days regardless of whether work days or weekends. People work from home probably over the weekends, so loss of internet over weekends should be compensated .. shouldn't they ???
Complete Failure in Service
Hello, I am writing regarding the wifi at my house. We recently upgraded our broadband plan 3 or so weeks ago to the highest we can Gig1 service with a new hub 5 and it has been an abhorrent experience. For 3 weeks consistently there have been drops and disconnections from the internet. Too many times I have called regarding this. The internet went down about 5 times within an hour timeframe last Saturday and upon calling virgin to resolve this, your representative scheduled a technician to come today and I quote from the mouth of your representative “GUARANTEED” that our wifi problem would be solved. Not only was that a blatant lie, the wifi is now completely not connected to the internet, it is no longer intermittent on and off, it is completely off. Technicians have come twice to check connections install new routers and said everything should be fine but that is not the case. In addition, the house landline is no longer able to make calls and certain channels on the tv no longer show. NOT ONLY THAT, but I work from home! I have lost an entire day of work today due to virgin media’s poor service and I now must deal with the consequences with my superiors. The longer our virgin wifi is down the more my job is at risk! It is not just my livelihood that depends on good wifi, but my grandparents, who are both OVER 90 YEARS OLD and require reliable and fast wifi and service for communication in the event of a medical emergency, which is now at risk. What happens if there is a serious medical emergency in this heat and no one can call an emergency contact or an ambulance and it's too late? Shall I send virgin the funeral bill at that point? I demand a resolution to this immediately as we are paying the most and receiving less than the bare minimum. Should this matter not be resolved we will have no choice but to escalate this matter. I expect a response with haste

Hi, So I moved into my new house on Friday. I connected everything up and it seemed to work fine, but today nothing is working. I know they said today would be the day they would disconnect my old account and activate my new account, so is that what is happening or is it a different problem? I have little white flashing arrows on my box and no WiFi. Please help!!TV & Internet going down
Hello, Over the last couple of days my internet and tv have been going down intermittently in the afternoon. Sometimes for a few seconds, sometimes for 5 or 10 minutes. I haven't been notified of any repairs going on in my area so I'm not sure if it's just me. Just thought I'd let you know in case I get cut off again. Thanks, Santosh
