VM are prone to people abusing the service to the detriment of other local users. All you can do is complain, and it that doesn't help, find another provider.

So neighbours hogging the line?

In effect, yes. Probably not immediate neighbours/street, but neighbourhood. I'd imagine it would take a few people to flatten it though.

Hmmm, will have to keep an eye on that. Virgin vans are ever present in the close these days, due to the poor bt lines. Looks like we've started a trend.

I will have to speak to H about chatting with the "oracle" over the road.

You won't really get line hogging on virgin fibre cable feed, maybe on the adsl lines, it can drop the speed a bit but not to the amount that redelitev6 was saying. that is a fault and needs them to come and sort it.

I'm afraid you still do.

  Been on to the VM help forum, slow speeds are a VERY common complaint , the standard reply from VM seems to be "things will get better when new equipment etc is in place "

  Just done a speed test this morning and I'm getting 31 mbps !

Obviously a local fault, and cleared in what I'd call a reasonable time frame.

Wish it was a one off fault , I get very slow speeds every Saturday night

I suspect it will reoccur at the next peek time

We have a local fault, currently on mobile network.

No connection at all on VM.

2mins 30 seconds of options, a further 5 mins in queue. Exactly 5 mins btw. Suspicious? Me?

Indian fellow advises technicians estimate up to 8 days to repair. But problem should only exist at peak times.

From 8pm on it should behave. We'll see.

£8 credit applied.

[chrisgixer]

Still nothing.
