Sky TV, Orange broadband and a BT phone line all costing £135 a month Now £99 a month and we (should have) mega fast broadband I got cheesed off paying Orange £25 a month for 3 MB tops and would happily pay more but they cant do anything so right outside the gate is a cabinet - a cable one I...

Anyone got this? I'm thinking of taking the plunge as apparently it's available to my house. Would I notice the speed increase from say 20 to 50, i.e. Is it proportional? Its just for surfing, I'm not a big downloader but I do work at home so it gets used a lot. I've currently got sky...

A while ago Virgin Media rolled out bandwitdh capping in peak hours for peak users... I threatened to change, and was told that if I upgraded to their 50mb package, there was no capping... So, as there was other provider that could offer more than 1.8mb to my house (in the middle of...

Hi A few times now we've lost our internet since joining VM in March. The last two times, we've been told to switch off the modem and the router so they could send a something to the router. I would have thought our lowly router would need to be on to receive this "signal" ...

A quick question... I've finally caved and got the Virgin V+ box (which just happens to be free on my tv package... so it made my decision much easier!) Question is, it has a reasonably small hard-drive from what I read. So, given that the box is property of Virgin media, and I can't take...

Anyone else having problems? I have been offline at home for 10 days and no promise of reconnection for about another 2 weeks. Just cancelled my account and am going to BT. May not be the cheapest but quality and consistancy of service must be better than Virgin. Ever since it changed from NTL...

I just read this... http://www.electronista.com/articles/08/03/31/virgin.piracy.filter.trial/ I knew it was coming, but I didn't realise so soon. Though I realise my ISP has the capability to look at anything I look at, I'm still totally outraged that they will start sifting through my...

Grrr.... I've been recently "swapped" to Virgin Media (from Blueyonder, to NTL and now to Virgin)... I've kept a VERY open mind. I thought that things seemed ok, but I haven't received my first bill yet... then two or three nights ago I realise I can't access a site I visit (very) often; I...
