yesterday
Having contacted 3 two weeks ago and being reassured that recent work had been carried out locally, I’ve had to contact them again today for an update. The previous advice was that the issue had been resolved and to keep restarting my devices to see the speeds return to normal. This hasn’t happened.
Today I’ve been told that it’s now a nationwide issue and the only advice is to wait for the issue to be fixed.
What I would like to know is, having already waited 2 weeks and still paying for a service which has seen my speeds drastically reduce from 100s mbps to 20-30 if I’m lucky, how long am I expected to wait before I can cancel my services without being charged a cancellation fee. I’m already seeking alternative options from other providers.

Hi @Griz, @Midnight54,
Sorry for all the disruption you've been facing with your connections lately.
The more widespread issue mentioned should be resolved now, but I don't think it's likely to be connected as you've mentioned these issues have been going on for a couple of weeks now, and that issue was much more recent, it may have been affecting the tech team's ability to investigate other issues though.
We're doing some work in the area you've both mentioned. Please let me know if you see any improvements over the next day or so.
@Angels I've also replied on your thread, it does look like this is also a local issue we're working on today.
Thanks,
Jonathan

On the contrary. This morning I ran a speed test on my phone through the WiFi router and received 380mbps. Then I tested my Apple TV connected by Ethernet and got 50mbps. Having just returned home I’ve ran another test on the tv and it’s now giving me 0.6mbps. The WiFi 0.5. My signal strength has dropped from 4 bars to 1.

The router has now connected to 4g+. For my house this indicates we're connecting to the mast around the Brus sort of area of (I could confirm with the Cellmapper app if I went out) .. unfortunately yup we only get 1 or 0 bars for that and lucky if a page even loads.......... however it is a positive hope that they may indeed be working on our mast by the golf course right now

oh and this is how bad the speed gets late at night last night, even slower than the daytime
If do speedtests make sure to set the test to single stream else get skewed results which may have temp given the 380mbs when single file would've been less than a tenth of it

Hey @Griz,
Sorry I could have been clearer there. There's work scheduled which should be ongoing now, please let me know if you see any improvements by this evening or tomorrow morning. There'll likely be some further disruption whilst the engineers are on site, but hopefully this addresses the problem you've been experiencing. If not, please let me know and I'll check into how we can escalate this further.
Thanks,
Jonathan
