Re: Just got 50mb Broadband - Signal levels ok?
Rang up and got an Indian call centre 2 days ago. They said there was a fault in the area. Gave me £15 and said it was to be fixed by 13th. Today, still issues. So rang again, got another £20 credit and said it could take up to 2 weeks. Explained my cooling off period was up on Saturday and could they extend it while I wait. They said unable to do this and call customer service in the morning.
Very frustrating, what should I do and can they increase the cooling off period? |

Ring in the morning as advised and sort something out with them. |

When you ring UK, confirm the credit as offshore support lied to me about putting credit on my account

If by any chance the CS dealing with you in the morning won't play the game, ask to be put through to retentions and explain to them that you have not had a fair and reasonable chance to evaluate their service due to the issues you have experienced.
Honestly though you should not need to go that far as CS will realise you need more time. You may even get a credit to your account. ---------- Post added at 23:24 ---------- Previous post was at 23:23 ---------- Quote:

An engineer is coming out tmoz. He would have come today, but I had to go to work.
Just look at these joke stats. |
Re: Just got 50mb Broadband - Signal levels ok?
what is wrong with them? Your download speeds are fine and as for the speedtest, run one off the london server and see what you get

Re: Just got 50mb Broadband - Signal levels ok?
I am seeing download speeds of 3.5mb/sec which I think is perfectly reasonable for a 50mbit connection. If I get anything between 4-5 I am happy. In theory I could moan all the time because I should be getting 6mb/sec for my 50mbit connection but I can honestly say that I only 6mb/sec for the first time ever yesterday when I was hammering newsgroups. I think VM are ahead of the game in terms of speed atm in the sense that the majority of websites can't pump out enough juice to all it's visitors. If we could click our fingers and give everyone 50mbit in the country they would all be moaning. It isn't because VM arent providing the download speed, it is because on the majority of sites it just simply isn't available to be had. Maybe this time next year as things develop peeps won't have a problem pulling 5mb/sec and instead those of us 100mbit will be moaning that we can't download at 12.5mb/sec. It just takes time for everyone to catch up.
When I first got my 50mbit connection I was lucky enough that one server on speedtest.net gave me a true line test because none of the other ones did and VM said not to use speedtest.net because it didn't support 50mbit connections. The engineer ran a test off the official VM test server and it came back with 25mbits, what does that say about the VM servers? |

Guy came, give him his due he spent nearly 2 hours sorting it. He said I needed a reverse HDU to keep my upstream in check ( already had, was hoping I could do without )
Turns out the Dlink was faulty and killing my speeds, also he replaced the splitter. https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2010/05/27.png |
