Craig_ Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 Evening all! Just wondering if anyone else is having any problems with their Virgin connection tonight. Maybe it's just the masses of folk ranting on the Terrace about tonight's game, but right now my internet's running slower than the bleedin' Teletext! Anyone got any ideas?* *and yes I've checked for spyware before anyone starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylemc Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I think they are putting a sneaky cap on the download you are doing. I recall reading some reports on this actually being uncovered. But I am afraid I don't know where those articles are. Do you download frequently? have more than 2 computers in the house connected to the internet? do you play any online games? :107years: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 300 miles from Edinburgh but frequently have problems with my Virgin Broadband. Last night it was noticeable that things slowed up in the late evening - but I put that down to JKB getting swamped If you suspect you are having problems caused by Virgin then call their tech support number. The call is chargeable but IF there is a genuine problem you will not be charged. Virgin should also tell you how much the call has 'cost, in this scenario. You can check against your next bill to see if that has been charged - which the robbing barstewards did to me 4 times (although I got it settled eventually).
