Anyway, let's not keep posting in a thread about the largest private network build in a decade or two about a TV channel one provider has that another does not. Plenty of other threads to complain about content in.

I strongly suspect I'll see Virgin Media contractors doing there thing around here, though possibly not at this property, as we will in every major city to plug gaps.

£750 per home passed makes a lot of previously unviable infill viable. They may finally get around to putting cable in the empty ducts and cabinets on the pavements to the south, west and north of here now! :)

We have been getting lots of info fired at us this morning in work. I can tell you this is not bluster on the part of VM its going to happen and on a big scale :D

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

with Sky entering the mobile market too soon VM cant take eye of ball in any department now

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

They kept it bloody quiet, so fair play to them for that!

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

Big wow! The price will be increasing soon. Far too expensive!

Plus this bad news:

Virgin Media that will see the current 152 Mbps service going faster probably in the next 12 months and are a little surprised that this was not in todays announcement.

Telford if you have nothing constructive to add go play with your toys and leave this to the grown ups

Its a big wow in terms of investment and job creation. Try an on line dictionary if you are unsure what investment means.

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

I started to hear about this 2 weeks ago but we were NOT allowed to tell anyone.

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

They probably want to wait until its nearer the time they start rolling it out, hopefully Liberty Global want to move away from all the coming soon nonsense that VM and NTL had and try and firm things up more before they announce them.

They can quite easily release a statement in a few months time which says in addition to the expansion of our network we are today announcing we are upgrading everyones speed to x.

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

Definitely long overdue, but I'm slightly concerned that I've seen more congestion on the network as a whole lately (purely anecdotal, mind you) so I hope they're going to keep upgrading the existing areas with capacity as well.

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

Sorry I opened a thread here before I was directed to this one.http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/12...l#post35759056

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

Yes i also have congestion for a change every evening from 6pm until 11pm so i hope they get it sorted!

Re: Virgin Media to build again
 

I asked on the other thread if we knew whether VM were going to use their existing network architecture for the extended network, or go for something less prone to congestion?
