    with virgin are you getting cable or adsl?
    'cause months ago i was in the same situation and i was thinking to go with virgin, since on the website they claimed that my area was covered by cable. When i ringed them up they told me that i can get just adsl, 20 mbit (nominal) adsl but no cable AND i needed to reactivate BT.
    So, after sayng fuckoff to virgin i ringed BT and i asked to reactivate the line. And then go with bethere
    the 125 fee is subivided into 10.something per month on your bill, so doesn't hurt so much.

    One advice about be: check the wiring status of your home. (and the distance from the exchange) I get no more than 7Mbit in download cause my wiring is really old.
    Btw excellent customer service (I spent a whole afternoon at the phone trying to sort out the speed problem)
