A friend I know has Virgin (ex-NTL) broadband.
They do not have the computer (laptop) on all the time but often find they have to have several tries over a couple of hours to get a connection.

MY fault on their broadband went fucked om Wednesday, as mentioned above.

When they told me they would be round Saturday to fix it they said there would be a charge if I wasn't in.

Because it has been working since Wednesday and the fault was at their end not mine I decided to cancel the call out.

Believe this or not they had already done it after finding the fault at their end!

The only fucking way I found this out was by ringing them, they had no intention of letting me know.

It would have been fine for them to charge me had I not been in but OK in their opinion to just not turn up!

They are a bunch of useless wankers.

!furious!

My only gripe on Virgin Media is their customer service and sense of urgency,or should i say,lack of.

It is true,they do keep you on hold for god knows how long,and when an operator is available,they don't have a scooby what you're talking about so they fob you off to another colleauge,who also does'nt have a clue.

How annoying is that?

I've been with NTL/Virgin for nearly five years and never had any serious problems. Yes sometimes my broadband connection goes down but it's never been for more than a few hours at a time and over the four year period it's happened maybe 5 or 6 times. Would I be better off with another broadband provider... no!

As for the TV, I'm on the XL package with the HD box. With the exception of LOST on Sky 1 I don't feel I'm missing anything by not being with Sky... in fact I get Setanta free, so can watch all of my team's games whoever broadcasts them!


It's true that their customer services department is pretty clueless and keep you habging on for a long time, but I've only had to call them twice in all the time I've been with them.

Given the choice between lining Murdoch's pockets and Branson's , I'd rather give my hard earned cash to Branson any day than the Aussie cunt!
