			I don't say either, Trustpilot does. Their star rating puts BT ahead of VM. Don't complain to me if you don't like their system of scoring.

			No complaint here - just clarifying a comment. 
This explains how the scoring system works.

 Star ratings are only one part of Trust Pilot.

 They may well be but I would say they are the main part people take notice of.
 
I have no grudge with VM, I've been back with them about a year and was with them a few years ago. I've never had a problem with them and in fact have always been quite happy. It was pure cost that I left them for last time. And the shittyhub at the time.

 Have you looked at your My Virgin Media to see if a credit has been applied there?.
 
If not then keep on to them until the credit has been applied.

			Pixellation is usually caused by a poor signal into the TV box.  Make sure all the cable connectors are done up properly.

			I would never trust anything on trustpilot. They've had massive amounts of evidence given to them about bought/paid/bot reviews and ignored it. Hell, if you try to report fake reviews via their own website they threaten to ban you. 
 
Scummier than ****.
