Re: Brighton Area Problems

Well we have put up with a crap service that VM are fully aware of.

We have all patiently waited until September for the promised improvements and yet still we wait………….

Any contact from VM to keep us updated with the situation….. NO!

Any contact from VM on how they intend to compensate us for the poor service they have provided….NO !

Do VM have any respect for their customers…..NO……………

fwiw it appears a CM migration occurred on/around 30/8 for some brig16 subscribers who were moved to brig15.
Have you checked if your IP/CMTS has changed?

No.

I dont know how to check if CMTS (what ever that is ) has changed.

What I do know is it now takes 3.15 minutes to change a page on Ebay.

Re: Brighton Area Problems

My BB does not work at all now and Virgin have said basically tough wait till 8th/16th November !I contacted ofcom some time ago and they told me to contact them if the problem was not sorted out on the 7th september as Promised I am now using my phones wifi (Unlimited from "3" network and it is fast compared with what I was getting from Virgin) I do hope Virgin Realise the fines they will rack up for not only getting paid for a non existant Service but also the lack of customer care!!!!! anyone else suffering at the hands of Virgin Please contact ofcom the more that do the better for us the Customer !!!
for too long Virgin have taken the P lets teach them "The Customer is always Right"
