Same here, we've had intermittent broadband since July. They say there's a complicated problem in the area but keep giving me a date a couple of days ahead that it will be fixed. Don't think it's ever going to be fixed now so I'm terminating contract as well.

Would like to go with Community Fibre but it's not available yet in my area.

Our phone was down for two weeks until yesterday when, after hours on the phone and net we managed to persuade Virgin that there was something wrong with it. Because of an "Upgrade" locally a engineer should have come to the house to finish the job but, of course, never did. The engineer who came yesterday said this had been happening all over the area

I could express my opinion of Virgin, but it would be a waste of time

I’ve had the same intermittent fault since 16th July. Every time I call up they say it will be fixed in 3 days time. That day comes and it’s still not working. Then they say it’ll be in another 3 days. And on it goes. Each time I waste my time spending 40 mins calling them up. It’s a complete disgrace.


I have also managed to terminate my contract. As an FYI, you are able to terminate your contract and avoid the early disconnection fee if a) the fault has been happening for 3 consecutive days AND b) it has happened for a period of 30 days or more. I’d encourage everyone to vote with their feet and terminate it - you are well within your rights to do so. It’s insane that a fault can be ongoing for almost 2 months now with no resolution

    • I am sure our lovely Evri delivery team, who do a firkin hard job, take the time between drops to read the East Dulwich Forum 🤫
    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse
