WiFI Pod—am I entitled to one?
I have Gig1 Volt speed boost. In one room VM Connect reports 'Fair' , Download 24 Mbps, Upload 23 Mbps and I thought that this would entitle me to a free pod but the App gives no information on how to get one. Am I correct in the assumption, if so could somebody tell me the procedure for getting one. Thank you. MartynUrgent Installation Help Needed!
Hello, Apologies in advance for the long post, but I am facing what has been an incredibly long and complicated process. I placed an order for broadband in June and no issues regarding installation were flagged. Our installation was then booked in for the 15th September, and everything seemed fine. Roll around 15th September, an engineer comes round to complete our installation and we are told he cannot do so as we require wayleave from our neighbour. Immediately after this, Virgin cancelled our account with no warning. Fortunately, our neighbour agreed to give us wayleave, however the Residential Wayleave Team at Virgin were incredibly uncooperative and said that as our account had been cancelled, they couldn’t proceed with the wayleave request and that I’d need to contact Customer Service to book a new installation. When I contacted Customer Service, they then said that they couldn’t book an installation as it required wayleave which created a deadlock. After many hours on the phone to Customer Service, we eventually got this resolved and we had a new installation booked in for October 9th, tomorrow, and we assured relentlessly that it would go ahead with no further issues. Ahead of the installation tomorrow, we were told that work would need to be done to the property in advance to allow the engineer to complete the installation on the 9th October. This was due to happen last week, then was rescheduled to the October 5th, then rescheduled to the October 6th, then rescheduled to the October 7th, then rescheduled to today (October 8th), but no-one has shown up. We have also received zero communication either by text, call, or email about when this necessary work will happen. It’s only when we call. For example, earlier today I called yet again to confirm that the work would be completed today and I was assured it would do. I was given a specific window of 18:30 - 19:35 for the work to be completed, and the Engineer's Tech ID which was 47842. As expected, no-one turned up again. I also received a call from Virgin Media saying that our installation date had been moved to the 1st November due to ‘extra essential work’ needing to be done outside the property. Following this, I immediately rang up Virgin Media, explained the situation again for the millionth time, and the gentleman in the Pre-Installation team moved the installation to the 23rd October. He also submitted a ‘Code Escalation’ form to escalate the issue further. Despite this, I have absolutely no confidence that this installation is going to go ahead, and I am appalled and baffled at the absolute lack of communication as to when this work will go ahead, as well as the complete lack of accountability for confirmed appointment times. If I do not receive any help soon, I will be making an official complaint with Virgin Media, as well as an official complaint to OFCOM and/or the Communications and Internet Services Adjudication Scheme, and also the Communications Ombudsman as this is totally unacceptable. Please can someone urgently help me resolve this issue, or at the minimum provide some advice on how I proceed as I am at my wit's end and simply want my WiFi installed!Intermittent Signal In Area - High Ping and Jitter issues for over a month and a half.
Title says it all. I've been experiencing high ping and jitter issues with my broadband since the backend of August and have had numerous engineer visits that have not resolved the issue whatsoever. I've had a new Hub, I've had a Booster added to the house to help improve signal etc. Nothing has changed. Bearing in mind, I've been with Virgin since April and up until the end of August, everything was working perfectly fine with no issues. When I check the status in the area, it just says intermittent signal, but it's said this for the past two months. I'm at my wits end, cause I'm effectively paying for a service that doesn't work and I'm seriously thinking of just stopping the contract and switching provider. Would appreciate some help to save me the hassle of switching over!Virgin Hub 5 Ethernet ports not working with CCTV
Hi I recently changed my hub 5 to another hub 5. Previously the Ethernet ports were perfectly fine and cameras cctv were working all good. Now all of a sudden the remote camera viewing has gone offline and Ethernet ports are not flashing behind the router. I have tried diff Ethernet cables and same issue. It’s a hub 5 and hik vision cameras. Please help. Thank youVan connect can’t find hub5
We were suffering a slow connection. Today an engineer came out. Replaced the hub3 for a hub 5 and installed 2 Wi-Fi pods. Since then it’s worse. vm connect cannot find the hub. not sure if the pods are working. Connection is dodgy through the house, have to keep deleting Wi-Fi and rejoining. Near one of the pods it’s particularly unreliable. Was hoping to access vm connect to see what’s connecting and what isn’t. anybody advise? Think getting VM connect working first might help then I can run tests around the house to check pods working etc.WiFi Pod Not Connecting to Hub
I have recently received the black WiFi pod to improve our WiFi in parts of the house. I have followed the instructions for installation (through the box instructions, and the instructions through VM Connect App), and tried the pod in multiple locations. The latest location I tried is about 10 feet from the main router (Hub 3) with a direct line of sight and still not connecting after 24 hours. Any recommendations on how I might resolve this, or raise this with Virgin? There's seems to be no contact for support through their app. Thanks!
