hidden12038yOFCOM I think is a while dodgy organisation in the first place, like how the fuck have BT and open reach not be called up by them and the monopoly commission on the fact that literally only one other internet provider isn't connected to them or paying them for the connection, or what about the fact that EE got most of the 4G spectrum because for literally no reason what so ever they got early access to bid on it, plus BT now owns EE so you know, that's not at all suspicious or going to be a problem at any point

c3ypt1c96638yI never really had any problems with virgin media other than when the 5 year old super hub broke but I couldn't blame them...

Used virgin for 2 years when I was in the UK.. 24 pounds for 30 mbps.. Zero down time! Only had to reboot the router maybe 2 3 times.. Try it out

philcr30548yI just tried to upgrade to fttc as it arrived recently, plus net are my isp. It took three attempts to get me connected, and I'm now at half speed which apparently is a line fault. I have spent the last year telling them my broadband is a bit shit and they have kept tinkering but not sent and engineer. I'm not hopeful, quite frankly it scares the shit out me that everything is BT. Fingers crossed

@c3ypt1c Virgin media is great fast broadband except when it goes down. Then the customer service is fucking shite. They try and fob you off, never tell you the same thing, promise payment for downtime days put you on hold and hangup. They have a status page which is just a lying marketing scam. But generally good. Plus you don't need to pay for a landline.

philcr30548y@helloworld we use virgin media business at work, it's great when it's working but the customer support is a bit shit and not really business like.
I particularly love it when they do router firmware upgrades or maintenance some where during business hours without any warning emails etc. -
hidden12038yUnfortunately Virgin don't have lines in Northern Ireland and aren't likely to any time soon so I literally have no choice otherwise I would definitely change

Fuck you BT, charge me £80 for phone and internet, then only give me 50% of your advertised speeds that cuts out at random points then when I complain tell me you'll look into it but if you find any issues within my property I have to pay for the fixing of all issues with my line inside and outside the property not to mention the over £100 call out fucking cost!!! Plus you were fucking charging me £6.99 a month for BT fucking Sport that I don't watch and that I was told on 3 occasions was fucking free for the last 3 years!!! Again I will reiterate FUCK YOU BRITISH TELECOMS
