@virginmedia Yeah, I've done all that (I'm a techy) it's why it's in modem mode and replaced with a capable router. The issue isnt the equipment it's the connection. Without the hub3 I can run upto 900Mbps download and 240mbps upload.

@virginmedia I have your smart hub 3, or as I like to call it the dumb dumb 3000. (It's struggles to broadcast a decent connection around a 2 bed flat, so it's been banished to modem mode. (Honestly, it's the worst router ive ever dealt with) 😳

@virginmedia Also given that link is for postal marketing how exactly does that help with phone calls? As it stands your systems are non-compliant

@virginmedia @VirginMedia_TV any help/advice on moving house. Want to stay with Virgin but can't speak to anyone and the home move team have said they've cancelled the policy? 3 days trying to speak to someone.

@virginmedia LS, I have and do regularly when ever it seems slow. It varies from 12mbps download to a maximum of 110mbps. However the monthly average is under 60mbps. Which falls well short of my guaranteed speed.

@NadineDorries @virginmedia @O2 Here she is again that glam Nan spouting bollocks that is instantly shot down by ordinary people who seem to actually know facts. She really needs to shut up or just read factual information instead of coming across as an incompetent muppet.

@virginmedia is there a way for me to find out if my phone number has been leaked or involved in any form of data breach as I've been getting daily phone calls from people pretending to be you? Never anyone else so just intrigued.

@virginmedia Considering my router is a 1gbps it shouldn't be an issue. However even with wired it'll vary between 15mbps and 110mbps. However our average over a month is 53.6mbps, which is less than half the speed we pay for 😳.

@virginmedia So why then a) does it specify postal and b) not provide a field for mobile number. At best it’s misleading and at worst incompetent

@virginmedia Apparently there was a flaw in the online system: it sent out a fake installation date, but with full details. Apparently online the phone system was working... We were told Virgin were aware of this problem and it affected quite a few people, yet we weren't informed?

@virginmedia So what's happening in SN1 again? Both myself and neighbour have no service, but your automated phone line says there's no problem.... It's been just over 5 weeks that our problematic connection was fixed (after 3 weeks of an unusable service).
