Slow 20mb

[John53]

Last few days have had very slow 20Mb service on speedtest it varies between 3 - 5 Mb. Talked to Nichel on support he says I have some Malware present. Ran Malware bytes and found nothing. Also my 2 other pc's (this one is my laptop) also runnning slow. Surely I cannot have Malware on all 3 ?
How do i get Virgin to check the green box etc ?

You have to figure out a way to speak to an agent that has a clue. They are mostly based in the UK.

Phoning in from 08.00am is recommended but has never worked for me. :(

There is also the Help &Support (http://community.virginmedia.com/) Forum but that has also not worked for me.

That leaves Retentions or the CEO's office to complain to.

Leave the CEO's office alone for now - they are a last resort.

Try calling at 8am and do post on the forum, those guys will help though you may have a bit of a wait.

Check the service status too.

... Try calling at 8am ...At 8am weekdays, I'm on my way to work. I don't think VM would be too interested in me calling from there, when I'm not at the modem/PC to follow the actions in the script. My employer might not be too pleased either. How about VM providing decent support to all customers all through the day, not just those who can call at 8am? :rolleyes:

[SEPH]: Don't we wish. If VM haven't done anything yet with that awful offshore call centre, it doesn't look good going forward.

[SEPH]: Again, don't we wish. Who's gonna pay more for a better support service?

I think my point's made, Masque.

[SEPH]: Again, don't we wish. Who's gonna pay more for a better support service?I've seen my VM monthly bill - I think I am paying for a first-rate support service. How do they justify their charges otherwise?
