Rob's Review for Virgin Media

Title: Virgin ADSL. Hell NO!
I have had Virgin ADSL for almost 12 months now. The original reasons why I went with Virgin were:
1) They were the ADSL equivalent to NTL (cable) which had always done me proud.
2) No 12 month contract.
After joining I found out that \'no 12 month contract\' actually means we will charge ?50 if you want to leave before your 12 months is up!
My latency for the last year, has on average, been about 212ms! No on-line gaming for me then! After talking to \'technical\' support about 4-5 times I actually came across someone who knew what latency was. They tried to fix it but failed.
My dl speed is about 300kb/s way under 8Mb!
Avoid at all costs!
