Update
Ok internet still 100%
just to fill you in on more of the story...
sit comfy :P
well about 7 yrs ago we moved the tv box into my daughters bedroom , yes drilled the ceiling as well (now thats a funny one, dammed if i knew at the time how thick a girder was, and yep 1" and i would have missed it, but no my luck i drilled right through lmao doh)
ahh where was i ah yea , cable guy said the cable was no good ? , worked for years , but i disconnected the connection to upstairs for 24hrs just to make sure that internet was working 24/7 it IS and finally 6 hours ago plugged the tv cable box upstairs back into me daughters room and that is working as well
the best thing now is i can e-mail virgin (oh feck i spelt it right lol) and try and get them to sort my account out now
i have read a lot of threads in this forum with people jumping on Virgin for very small hickups, and (held me tongue) i have to say some people should be shot, just because they get put out once, or even twice. Take a look at sky forums for example, you will see the same arguments/support problems.
Thank you for your support here
Thank you @Virgin support (contacts from here, they knows who :P )
Thank you Virgin Engineers (2 out of the 6 that visited)
thanks to my kids , they have finally stopped screaming at me for the internet lol
cheers guys
