Virginmedia fault in Swansea area.

[Jelly Bean]

All services are affected in the Swansea SA1 and SA5 are since the 29th of this month,still waiting for this to be resloved.

Ping is nearly 400 and my speed is either cut in half or less than the 1 meg wich I should have 4 meg.

How many more days to fix this issue?

Still waiting for outr free upgade to 10 meg also.

Update,services for BB and TV should be fixed at the latest 10 pm tonight.

I have eventualy got through and complained to righ departments.

I now will receive money off my next bill for loss of both of these services.

The free upgade should be sorted very soon?Thats all I got on that issue.

I think I'm pretty close to you. We both had simultaneous problems last time. I'm getting about 11k a sec tops here in Sketty. Meh! It's been like this for 3 days now.

Hey Dean.

I still had issues.

Turns out I needed new modem and cable to wall box in living room.The wall box had to be replaced.Myne was realy realy old.They are calling back on Friday to fit new cable from internal box to the outside wall box.

Is the light on the right of your modem blinking?This may indiacate you need the signal resent to your connection,you would need to ring Virgin.

Sketty is only a few mile away.I have run Virgin and SA5 and SA2 are having problems,unsure if they are fixed yet.

Have you tried reboot modem then your computer?Update network adaptor drivers via device manager.

Could you possibly have an issue with malware?


You need to ring Vurgin and politly complain that these issues are happening,get the issues fixed then you ask for money off your bill every time.

I am getting £30 off my next bill due to the issues.

Well done Virgin.
