Still nothing here - guess I'll just have to keep waiting! Looks as though they're rolling out the profiles region by region.

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

They are rubbish - now worse than BT why take so long between March 2012 and December 2013 is approx 21 months to wait! or could be longer than that.

BT FTTC is the winner overall.

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

I don't think it's fair to criticise the length of the rollout for whatever it is that VM's doing. They have a pretty big network, you can't expect them to just upgrade the whole thing over night. BT hasn't upgraded their entire network to FTTC, either.

The length of the rollout is largely irrelevant, the main things Virgin are responsible and should be criticised for is their communication over the rollout (delays are to be expected, but to say an area is upgraded when it's clearly not?), the training of their CS staff, the quality of their equipment, etc.

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

then why is from 50 meg to 100 meg roll out is last 12 months last time but double speed 100 meg to 120 meg is last around 21 months! (that's nearly 2 years compare to 1 year)

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

Ask Virgin. They're quite clearly two separate upgrades that need to be completed, likely on two separate systems. If I had to hazard a random guess, I'd say that one was capacity increases at the UBR while the other was capacity increases at the backend, or something to that effect.

I got 120/12 about a month after i got the two upstreams

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

Cheers for the info, I'll be keeping an eye on it, but the checker says Sept-Dec 2013, so i was slightly confused when i noticed the 2 US in December

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

It seems as though EVERYONE's "doublespeed" counter is saying "Sept-Dec 2013" if it hasn't been done already. I'm starting to suspect that's just a bare estimate that's far enough away so people can't complain if it's wrong.

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

:) No change there then! :p:

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

What ya gonna do about that swipe, mon General?

Re: Area Upgraded?
 

Well my area originally said June-sep 2012 completion, then it changed to end of october, at the end of october the site said the upgrade was complete and a week later it had been updated to End Decmeber 2012, now the site says my area is now complete but if i log into myvirginmedia , it says my area is not ready yet.
What the heck? I would hold your breath about getting your speed upgraded too soon.
