Which? response to Virgin Media outage
Natalie Hitchins, Which? Head of Home Products and Services, said:
“Any Virgin Media customers affected by this outage will understandably be annoyed and frustrated. The provider must urgently provide clarity about how things will be put right for those customers whose services have been affected.
“We recently revealed that Virgin is the worst culprit among broadband providers for leaving customers without a connection for long periods. The company must up its game and give its customers the level of service they deserve – otherwise customers should consider switching to another provider.”
