Advantages: Great broadband speed! It's never slow!

Disadvantages: Not cheap!

First thing I'm going to say is that Virgin Media's services are not particularly cheap but please leave your judgement on that until the end of the review! I currently have cable tv, telephone and broadband provided by virgin. I have the second highest broadband package, the unlimited phonecall package and the basic tv package. All this comes in around £50 a month! The tv is good, the cost is something minimal like £5 a month and whilst only being the basic package, offers a good range of tv channels with a genre to suit everyone. I certainly wouldn't have much use for more channels.

The phone package gives you unlimited calls to local and national rate numbers any time of the day without paying on top of the monthly fee. I don't really use the phone much but the family does. Annoyingly the fee for calling mobiles is quite expensive. You pay a connection fee around 5p and then 15p a minute or thereabouts. Don't quote me on that though!

The broadband package is where things really excel! At 8mb/s the speed is lightening fast! Downloads and uploads are both very fast and I have yet to use broadband that I have found faster. It is a trully excellent service, not cheap around £25 per month though.

In my opinion, Virgin offer a great multitude of different digital products that I have yet to see bettered by another company. Well, maybe tv by Sky but not the others.

Summary: A good range of digital products with great broadband!
