[Technology] Virgin Media Cancellation Policy

[tstanbur]

We pay £30 a month for plus net, we've had two significant service drop outs in 3 years, it's pretty much bulletproof. I upgraded to a new router with 5g backup and a mesh system to improve coverage and run 60plus devices.

We get some of the streaming services free for one reason or another so all in pay about 80 quid a month for everything bar TNT.

Every time I've done a quote for VM it's been a rip off and our neighbours are always complaining about drop outs. Give them the elbow I say

I’m with Plusnet too and agree.

Virgin customers just get suckered in by the super fast speeds.

You really don’t need them or would be able to tell the difference with anything above 50 mbps from another ISP.

Horrible company. Was with them years ago for home and office and leaving them was a horrendous experience.

Renegotiated with Virgin Media a few days ago. They wanted to stick our bill up to £77 a month. Called the retentions team, told them I could get the same deal for £40 with other providers and they came back and offered £48 a month for 24 months. Took it. Broadband has generally been fine, TV more than enough for our needs.

With the mesh set up we get 60+ mbps in every room and decent speeds in the garden too. We'll probably upgrade to full fibre when available but I agree, really don't see why you'd require anything over 50 mbps.

We’ve been VM (& its predecessors) users for 30 years. Drop outs …. possibly once per decade just for a few hours, internet genuinely fast.
