    The fibre optic speeds never reach 20MB which I have paid for, but averages between 10-13MB (download speeds) but about 10MB over wireless. It is expensive for the speed paid for. Should be cheaper by £5 or so per month. Reliability of service is not good as BT but of a sufficient standard that you live with especially if you have to work from home sometimes.

    I have been with Virgin Media now for Broadband since approximately June 09, and so far my experiences have been to the highest quality. The service was fitted and within 1 hour the Broadband connection was running at top speed, hitting a speed test of 9.76Mbps constant for the following hours. The only problem I have ever had with the service was for approximately 10 minutes when I had a speed decrease to 3.24Mbps, this was due to a hardware malfunction and nothing to do with the connection.

    Virgin upped the payments on broadband and said it is because we were to get faster broadband this is not so.when phoning they say it will be in the area soon. They put the price up in May. this is now August and still no faster broadband.

    Have been paying extra for uprated Broadband speed for two or three months now; but despite taking the money; I am STILL waiting for the up-graded service.
