Ive had issues with the virgin superhub and my Xbox one, constantly looses connection. Loads of people have had the same problem for over a year now, I've had to connect an old router to the virgin one and connect the xbox to that instead.
Advice: Virgin Media Broadband & Tv
Infact virgin only throttle upload now,not the down stream

got virgin and sky. Virgin had some reliability issues when I first got it, like 3 years or so ago, but is cool now. To be fair they are both pretty solid now, but speed wise I find virgin better. Average around 6mb/s on downloads.
Their routers are shit, dunno why I'm taking ages to buy a new one.

i had to buy relay for around my house
the signal on the homehubs are so rubbish ffs
but now im downstairs so dont use the relays
Connection speed/stability has been calm for me...but as previously mentioned the wifi range from the supplied superhub is faaaaacked
My boy has had issues with dropouts n shit. Virgin spitting the pipes in the area are over utilised...swear at the time they were giving him estimated repair dates like 6/8months down the line. Thats peak!
Just be weary of their normal price after any introduction discounts...swear they are becoming dyam teefs
you just phone them up when your contract is up saying I want to move and they'll cut your bill down to a more favourable amount
thats what a driver said to me. he said he was with virgin, contract was coming to an end and was complaining and all that stuff, and he said suttin about they chucked in bare freebies for him or whatever...
did you guys know that if you make a change to your 'package' that is a new contract in itself...
ive made various changes to my package as in upgrading or downgrading or removing something and all that is like an extra 12 month 12 month contracts i was taken aback when the woman told me that
- 1 month later...
Finally coming to the end of my contract with Virgin
Think i'm going back to Sky
Virgin TV is just meh... Although the internet connection dropouts have become less frequent, i'm not convinced enough to stay
I was only able to get Fibre Optic on my street in December. Upgraded to it sticking with Sky. Their new Broadband Router is a lot better than their old one, used to get quite a few cut outs with the last one but this rarely ever drops now.
Cancelled my TV with Sky though. Tried telling me they couldn't offer me nothing and if I quit I can't rejoin for 12 months, said fine sign me off. When I rang up a couple weeks later to get Fibre Optic a nice woman on the phone was trying to get me back on the TV Package offering me 50% off again, told her the last rep said I couldn't rejoin for 12 months and she basically confirmed that was some bullshit lies.
although i fucks with richard branson i hate this service ffs ive been with them i think about 3 years now
internet in other rooms is rubbish
even in the same room i 'try' to stream tv shows and its buffering ffs... i mean how?
if you UPGRADE or DOWNGRADE your package with virgin over the phone that is a new contract and they dont say that to you over the phone... misrepresentation, misselling and misleading
My virgin broadband >>>
Was with sky a few years back was terrible
I guess it all depends where you live, you should google whats best for your area
Wouldnt swap my virgin net for anything tbh
So virgin gets a c/s yh?
How is it with blocking websites, throttling etc
Market leaders

Just clocked my bills have been rising slowly...need to drop the "im leaving" jazz n wind that shit back
my bills every month is never no less than £100
i can never understand why this is
heighest was £190
fucking madness
They only block shit that they have to by court orders (which apply to all major uk isps)
No such thing as blocked content in 2015 anyway so its not like it matters
its funny how virgin media (not sure about other isp) charge u £10 for NOT BEING ON DIRECT DEBIT

My virgin is running at 54mb, get at least 6mb/s downloading from Torrents and cant even remember the last time i got throttled.
Its not virgin who are locking the sites its the courts so it will apply to all the major providors in the uk so nothingthey can do about it. Always a simple way around the blocks anyway.
