Given that you're posting asking when upgrades from 2 to 10Mbit will happen in your area I'll hazard a wild guess that your speeds are around the 2Mbit mark. If they don't make 2Mbit due to a fault or other issues they certainly aren't going to make 10Mbit given that it's exactly the same network delivering both and the only difference between them is some settings on a couple of routers. If your broadband is slower than 2Mbit it will not go much if any faster if a setting is changed to say your maximum speed has gone up.

Sorry, but I agree with other 2 posters, in that you did come across as not being very civil and at times derogatory. Try to imagine yourself on the receiving end of your posts! How do you know they are impatient (an assumption perhaps!) - maybe they would just like to know 'when' the upgrades are occuring as paying customers, that would appear reasonable and civil to me.

Then maybe as paying customers they should consider simply asking Virgin instead of one of them implying that Virgin are artificially holding the upgrade back so that they can make a few extra pounds for a couple of months from people who may or may not upgrade to the next tier up while waiting for the upgrade.
Here's a suggestion for people who are really, really, really impatient for 10 meg. I realise it may be scary but bear with me. Pay for it.
