I'm an Owner of an Esports league called ESFL and we partnered with Virgin Media Gamepad for a in-person LAN tournament of EA UFC 5, just before UFC London. From start to finish the Virgin team was amazing! The technical staff was knowledgeable, and the hospitality crew did a great job of making us feel very welcome and were incredibly helpful in many ways. Special shout out to Malcolm, Dan and Paul for going the extra mile!!! I would absolutely recommend Virgin Media Gamepad to anyone looking to run a tournament in London! We will be back! -Boiler
