True story. Stay the fuck away from them. Literally any other company is better.
Everything they sell you is a lie. Everything they tell you is pish.
For the love of sweet little 10lb baby Jesus. Stay away from them, :dry:

Do you still have free access to newsgroups (rhetorical)? Virgin > all U.S. ISPs.
True story.

I think ours is about £25 ($34) a month for 10mb internets, a phone line and digital telly.
edit: speedtest what i just done:
9948 kbps (1.24MB/s)
475 kbps (59.4kB/s)
edit 2: I think the phone line might be a few quid more ontop, hactually.

I pay $55 per month for 10mb and have a 95gb cap, $1.50 per gb over, and pay over $50 for digital cable (cable is like $30 for my parents then for my digital it's like an extra $25).Quote:

yeah bo change your isp, its shite.
I want to go back to Bethere. :emo:
The wireless router I got with Virgin is wank. But when I use ethernet it's speedy as fuck.
I was getting 1200kb off of usenet last night, like. But if you steal more than 800mb between 4pm and 9pm, you get throttled to fuck for 5 hours. If you're paying for unlimited 10 meg broadband, you should fucking well be getting 10 meg unlimited broadband. Bunch of fucking cawksuckers.
i pay £27 amonth for basic tv, free weekend calls and 10mb interwebs. with virgin, pretty sweet deal.
The internet service is pish. At least in built up areas. It's probably fine out yonder where you all hail from.
I wouldnt like the thought of Rapist Branston using my money to pay for his high class prostitutes while i sit here in rainy cold depressing London waiting for my Black.Butthole.Stretchers.DISC1.XXX.DVDRiP.XviD to download. :dabs:

Time for a new router me thinks :smilie4:
I use a belkin router too, like. Other than it needing rebooted once in a while, it wurks fine.
I'm the same Bo; I've got the Belkin router and every so often it needs rebooting. Pretty happy with Virgin though: £17 a month for 10MB, phone line with free calls to Belgium and medium digital telly package (only keeping that because I love having Virgin on Demand). As I said before, they made a cock up with one of our bills one time, sorted it out straight away and gave us reduced rates for 12 months.
I need an internets connection I can abuse.
Been on vigin for years now, and i does what it says on the tin. Most I know who use other ISP's have a lot more grief, slower broadband and pay more.

I would not trust any internet service provision that comes in a tin :snooty:

Where I live I get 20Mb and unlimited downloads, sometimes it even goes up to 25Mb and I have to say that customer service is really very good indeed and all for £25.
Just move away from London. Problem solved.
or wales
Even if it says "virgin" on it? :unsure:Quote:

Almost certainly.
I am supposed to have an 8mb connection from BT. I did a speed test on the internets and I was barely 56k modem. I was righteous in my anger.....
turned out SGG was seeding and had stole all my megahurtz. Lucky I didn't phone up to complain.

£65 with Virgin for XL everything... and absolutely no complaints.
Excellent Customer Service... but i suspect this is because I'm in an Ex-Telewest area. I've heard horror stories from Ex-NTL customers :unsure:
Hmmm, why's they took down my avatar :'(
Hoi Paul! How have you been? It's nice to see your face around here again...err...
You know what I mean.
Peace, doobs. :happy:
I doubt it was intentional :dabs:Quote:
