Yeah o2 are absolutely awful, their 3g coverage is appalling where I live and where you get it it's unusably slow. Not to mention that Three and EE have already started rolling out 4g here and on o2 it is nowhere to be seen :mad: :thumbsdown:
That was one of the very reasons I switched to Virgin Mobile back in January this year! :(

You should have picked Three, unlimited data (which is truly unlimited, not Virgin's 3.5GB), unlimited 4G, no sign of 2G whatsoever (2G is very bad for tunein radio) and 4GB tethering.

From what I've found out, both O2 and Vodafone have very poor 3G coverage except for populated areas.
They are solid on 2G... but I don't want 2G.

EE however seem to cover virtually everywhere on 3G, there's only been a few black spots I've noticed.

Also, wherever I've picked up an EE (actually crappy Virgin) signal, I've also picked up a Three signal - probably because Three and EE share transmission masts (and antennas too) - hence coverage is likely to be good.

I'm on Virgin and although they offer the same coverage as EE, they don't do 4G. Also, due to Virgin's appalling attitude towards tethering, I may be off to Three soon...

Virgin have still yet to catch me out when it comes to tethering! :thumbsup:

How much have you tethered so far?

I have tethered about 200MB on a £16.50 VIP SIM.... haven't done anything about it :D

Just thought I'd create a thread for Virgin Mobile discussion, to try and keep other threads on topic.

Whether it is applause or criticism, post away! :D

Virgin trying to dictate to exactly what I go on when using the internet on my phone! :thumbsdown: "NO explicit content" says the guy at the store. Who the fuck are they to dictate as to whether or not I go on playboy.com etc? :mad: :rolleyes: OK, so I DON'T go on any 'explicit' websites, but if I wanted to, I'll pretty damn well will do! :D

This is what I do not like about Virgin. Despite the user paying for the data, the user cannot decide what they want to do with the said data.

I wouldn't go on explicit sites anyway, but I wouldn't want to be told whether I could or not!

I have downloaded "Orbot" and "Orweb" from the Play Store - which when used together, are a mobile version of the Tor Browser. So you could use that if needed.

Btw, when I next go to Leicester, I may get a cheap 3 Payg SIM - to test out whether 3 are any good! :D
I also have an O2 SIM that I found, but cannot use it as my spare phone (ZTE Blade 3) is locked to Virgin. :(

Again, VM dictating to us what networks we can and cannot use! :mad:

Apparently, I now have to ring 789 and pay £15.32 for Virgin to unlock my ZTE!!!!

I wouldn't use the ZTE as a phone, just for testing the networks (that ZTE was not up to scratch when I used it!) so I can see what Three and O2 are like in relation to crappy Virgin.

Virgin still haven't given us 4G and even if they did I wouldn't be able to use it as activating 4G would also activate fucking 2G! And you should know what 2G is like, from the video you uploaded for me.

I bet by the time Virgin launches 4G, North and South Korea will have become unified! :rolleyes:

As I said on one of the VM threads, on the virgin mobile forums, there is more chance of a meteorite hitting the Earth than there is the chance of Virgin Mobile releasing 4G.

I think I am better off with Hutchison 3G.

I dare you to sign up for puppet accounts behind a proxy on the Virgin Media forums and start lots of threads asking if you can sue Virgin Media for unrelated reasons such as because you accidentally bit your tounge and made it bleed. :D

It's this website: http://community.virginmedia.com/

Fancy signing up there, under loads of puppet names (such as ex-DS accounts) and posting loads of gibberish under the Mobile section? :D

Well I just tried accessing the VM forums on TorBrowser and I got this:


We're sorry, but you have been banned from using this site.

You have been banned for the following reason:

IP banned due to association with spam

Return to my original page
Yet on my chrome it works just fine for both spotify95 and sam_P.

Seems like crappy Virgin don't like TorBrowser.

Try reopening the program which will give you a new address. :)

They are accusing me of using multiple forum IDs, and as such have removed my posting privileges! They may even have banned my Virgin Media Superhub IP!!!!

Since Virgin Mobile aren't the best, this has tipped me over the edge. I'm gone. Done with Virgin - for good. Including the broadband that my parents are paying for.

I may even resort to using my upstairs Freeview TV more, as my parents downstairs main TV is also powered by this shitty nasty company they call "Virgin".

Thanks Virgin for the nasty customer service. Now go and do one! :fuckoff:

From what I have seen on DS, I don't think VM actually have plans to offer 4G at the moment, and tbh I don't know if they ever will!

I'm only on Virgin because my parents are on it and paying for my phone bill. If I had the choice, I'd be on Three or EE (probably EE now, on a 4GB or 10GB plan, as EE's 4G is better in terms of speed and coverage).

I still have an inkling that Virgin might move to the Vodafone network - if they do, I will cut up my SIM and go elsewhere - with or without my PAC!

About 5 times that! :D


Well, you might want to know, that this month, I have tethered 684MB of data on my Virgin SIM! :D

They haven't done anything about it either! :D
