Virgin is the Best ISP

Ladies and Gentlemen

I am a proud customer of Virgin Media since last 5 years and I have never had any problems with them.

I recommend if you are using any other provider please switch to Virgin and enjoy one of the best internet service in the world.

Thanks

Re: Virgin is the Best ISP

I may be staff but have been a customer for a lot longer around 15 years and as yet have never had any major issues apart from cutting the cable with a spade which they repaired due to it being to shallow and unshielded.

Re: Virgin is the Best ISP

I haven't had any serious problems just a couple of minor ones quickly corrected so I'm happy but I certainly wouldn't say VM are the best ISP, that's stretching things a little too far.

Improve U/L speeds, bring CS back to the UK etc, etc. There are several areas that need improving before they get close to being the best.

Re: Virgin is the Best ISP

I have had the odd problem now and then, but when I have, it has been fixed pronto. I am a happy customer.

Re: Virgin is the Best ISP

Same here, the odd problem but generally a rock solid service, even when I lived in student land.

And some news on VM leading the speed stakes here.

Re: Virgin is the Best ISP

Been with them for 4 years without major service problems, now billing is a different issue and needs a radical overhaul including transparent pricing so in my opinion they are a long way from best. In my area they are still 'fastest' until 21cn comes online fully.

They may be leading in the download stakes but they are still rank outsiders in the upload area.

OK they're trialing quicker U/L speeds but until implemented................

Rank outsiders?

They don't have the fastest u/l true, but compared to a lot of the bog standard ADSL services, its better.
