I have been using Virgin Plus for couple of weeks. At my residence the network reception very low [Hardly 1 bar]. Is it possible to take necessary action to boost the network reception. My location is in Toronto.

Hi @SyedShafi9868 

Reset Network Settings

Change on cellular data options, and Reboot phone.

@RedRose tried it but no improvement.

Hi @SyedShafi9868 

try your sim card in other device and check it

maybe your old device has network antenna weak,

do you Change on cellular data options, to LTE or 3G, 

Thanks for your feedback. The problem lies with Virgin Plus's Network not with my device.

Same happen with me too, I am so unfortunate that I have two connections and both have issues in Whitby and Oshawa. I am loosing calls while I am driving through main streets. The internet speed read less then 20Mbps abd 10Mbps many times. I called Virgin plus and I am told they know about this issue and not sure when to fix it.

 

I have been a customer for more than two years.  At first I was delighted with the service.  Over the past 8 months the mobile reception at home is terrible, to the point I cannot have a conversation with callers.  I have switched my mobile device to "wifi calling" but that is only marginally better. I have complained about this issue with Virgin and there only response is that this is a known issue in my area (Toronto) and no known resolution time?  How long must we suffer with bad service before we leave and try another provider?
