I find virgin media so unstable. You never get your full speeds.

Have 150 Down and 10 Up. Superfast, super reliable - seems more than enough for the modern household.

Sales waffle
Go onto virgins site and put in an address outside Dublin and you will soon be told no virginmedia for you
Here in Wicklow 18 mls from Dublin and no virgin services of any sort
no tv no broadband no phone
360 mb broadband pipedream
