[QUOTE="best_fullback, post: 418989, member: 15318"] Well I used Virgin Media for my internet and TV, and they are the most reasonable in terms of price as you don't have to pay for installation that other companies charge sometimes £100+ for. Our internet was good in my 3rd year because we lived in quite a quiet area of the city and therefore not many people were using the internet all the time through our server, and we could easily get 3 of us playing online on seperate consoles no problem. However, in my second year I lived in a really dense student area so everyone was going through the same server and our speed (that was meant to be 15mb/ps) was lucky to get over 2mb/ps and usually was around 1. That meant playing online was sometimes an issue, especially in the early evening when it was nearly impossible. Those are things to bear in mind, but if you live where lots of students live you can't really do anything about it. Also, I'll just tell you that I have had a plethora of problems with Virgin Media. Their customer service is terrible and they straight up tried to make us pay for 3 months more than we had signed up for this year. Admittedly, their engineers have been great, but trying to resolve something over the phone has often left me like this: [IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/wi09jb.jpg[/IMG] Just shop around and see what you think!
