Virgin Media Bad Service

Capped for no reason, and now I can't even connect to 150 or 151 as they are busy!

The service has really gone down hill recently!

It's unlikely you will have STM for no reason.

Re: Virgin Media Bad Service

I am leaving Virgin Media, this is ridliculous.
It's one thing being capped but it's even worse not being able to get through to tech support.

And why am I being capped after 9pm?

Cant be capped, must be local issues, if you can't get through that would suggest an issue:

Follow above steps.

Re: Virgin Media Bad Service

I haven't been downloading that much, but have uploaded about 2.7GB

Would this be enough to cause STM?

Guidelines, say 1500MB so yes, STM your connection is.

And provide this information: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/94...l#post34852254 Will confirm STM or not.

Re: Virgin Media Bad Service

Did you upload the 2.7Gb between 3pm and 8pm?

If so, that's why you've been STM'd.

Re: Virgin Media Bad Service

Some people seem to count their upload and download rates for the day rather than the specified timeslots which is why I asked.

Congrats on the job btw :D

Re: Virgin Media Bad Service

So should the STM not be lifted now as it's after 9pm?
Because I still have the slow speeds.
