I moved to Virgin fibre a few months ago, and the experience so far has been perfect. Although BT Infinity only ever had a handful of outages, the price and upload speed were far from satisfactory. My contract had expired and as an Infinity customer for 6 years I’d hoped for a good deal from […]

She looks just like her Daddy eh?
