Haven't had internet for the past 3 days.
Moved house on Saturday, and they installed it all, got a new modem, so took PC out of the box and tried the internet, it didn't work, and the Ready light was flashing, so they said that's a connection problem, they said they will try and fix it within the next 24 hours, and if it doesn't work, they will send an engineer out Tuesday morning. Engineers came Tuesday morning, had a look, and stated that they would need to activate the modem their end in order for me to receive a connection, and it will take around an hour. An hour went and still no connection (light flashing still).
Rang them up last night, went through everything with them, got transfered to Security Support or something, they tried to access the modem but they couldn't, I told them the enginner stated that the modem needed to be activated their end, the women said that it's impossible for her to activate the modem if she cannot get access to it, so she said she'll send out an Enginner Wednesday morning.
The guy came a few hours ago, accessed the old router via my PC and it seemed everything was ok, he rang VM up and asked if they could activate the modem their end, and still no connection, he went out and got a new modem, replaced it, activated the modem with them over the phone, job done.
Wohoo!
Bit of a delay, but finally have the internet. Good times!
VM seems great here, it was a delay, but the service we recieved was pretty damn good. I guess it depends where you are located.
