Anyone in the Barry Road area having problems with Virgin Broadband at the moment? I've had no service for the past two nights though I'm not at home at the moment so don't know if there's still a problem. No local problems at the moment according to their website.
the service went down on sunday afternoon again for a few hours. They were due to send out an engineer but not heard anything since. Yet another company that make you deal with a non UK call centre after battling your way through twenty numerical options

Virgin Broadband (and any of their other services) are great when they work but as soon as something goes wrong you enter a world of pain. I've not had a working landline for about 5 years now because I got tired of taking time off work for them to come round, then tell me that its such and such a problem and they need to send a different type of engineer for that (which of course is never the same day).


My broadband has been increasingly patchy lately so I've had the feeling that I'm due for some significant downtime. And its probably a sign that their service for the area is oversubscribed again.

We sacked them off just over 12 months ago and went with Sky, never had a problem in last 12 months. As our 12 month contract was up Virgin tried to swoon us back. I made a pro/cons list for both-Sky won hands down, revelations like these posts affirm my decision- check www.moneysavingexpert.com as they often have codes for savings, we had FULL Sky package for less than ?50p/m (included phone and Unl BB)

    • There is no other way than to move out. I am in such a situation myself where our neighbours are complete assholes. They breached the Covenants and when we pointed it they said to take them to court if we want.  Unfortunately, they have made our life miserable and we have to move out.    What helped in our situation is having a calm conversation face to face. It only happened after they tasted their own medicine(i know it's mean but nothing else helps).   I know it's unfair but better move out and prioritise your mental health. 
    • Thank you so much for the reply. Jeffery turned up a couple of hours ago. I edited title to say found but somehow it didn't save. Thank you so much for going to the trouble of posting this sighting... even if it didn't turn out to be Jeff.  Jeff came running down the street like a bat out of hell and ran into the house. Never been so relieved. Mind you i've been up and down the roads shouting his name out all day. Even in Wingfield street. 🤗
    • I saw a smallish black cat outside 1 Wingfield Street just now.  I am not convinced it was Jeff, the eyes look a little different.
    • When I worked just off Long Lane, it used to take me over half an hour to cycle there so it’s definitely not in East Dulwich.  can this be moved to the lounge please?
