First post as a new member here as I need some advice. Thinking of moving from BT phone/BB to Virgin TV/phone/BB. A speed test on my existing BB is coming up at 2mb at best - any other Virgin users in Belfast with comparartive sppeds for Virgin in Belfast?? I am relatively happy with speeds I am getting but am just wondering if Virgin move will significantly improve performance??

Any help or advice would be appreciated

If Virgin is available in your area chances are you will have significantly better speeds than what your getting with BT. This is a speed test from 5 minutes ago (I'm from Belfast). Absolutely no problems with the download speed. Stays around 50 most of the time... worst of times never below 30.
