Like me. Woah is me. :)

Was speaking to a friend today who lives in Belfast and he said he got the 150 today ?!?!?
I've asked him to confirm his SH2 configuration, as it may just be a stupid speedtest or something. Hopefully he will remember and let me know. :)

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

from belfast myself, he is probably lieing. Though i am on 120mb i have seen my download speeds go as fast as 165mb (utorrent) my area wont be done for a few months yet though.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

ou've already registered your interest
i should have it soon:


Right now you have our up to 120Mb broadband. That's really fast, but between March 2014 and March 2014 you'll be able to supercharge your speed to up to 152Mb broadband at no extra monthly cost.

So sit back and relax. We'll be in touch with you as soon as your supercharge is ready.

Yes my upgrade to 50MB now also says it'll be between March 2014 and March 2014 - so taking a wild guess I think they mean March 2014 :erm:

Can't see the need for any faster than 30MB download anyway. It's all 'marketing/Top Gear/ mines the fastest' cobblers which means no difference to most punters most of the time, except some are mug enough to pay more than others for something they don't need.

No word on an upload increase though which I would appreciate. A reply i had on the support forum suggested the upload might change at the time download increase. Surely they must know, so why all the need for secrecy I'm not sure. Unless an upload increase isn't happening at all and they don't want to admit they've abandoned the 10:1 download/upload ratio.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

Dya think maybe that's part of the reason why some are "mug enough" to pay more?

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

With the discounts I had i was paying less than someone on 30Mb anyway..

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

Probably happens quite a bit?
VM/Retentions do seem a little inconsistent, as I upgraded in 4Q2012 from 10/1L to 30/2 with a foc SuperHub + VHD and 15% less than my legacy 10L +TV XL bill.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

it was £24 for 120.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

I've asked again, but can't get a straight answer, other than "the connection is up and down and it has to be rebooted all the time ...."
So reading between the lines, I would suspect incorrect speed tests are to blame. :)

I'm still hoping my increase in March 2014 is on target !!

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

Just checked the 'supercharged' quoted dates in NE Lincs have slipped back four months, any particular reason?

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

mine have gone from the initial July-December to August-January now. I love how they can't be any more accurate than half a year :)

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

Mine have slipped too from March - May to May - July

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

August - January, here.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014
 

Oddly mine went from March to June to just March. So I'm guessing that Area 11 is one of the first upgrades, conversely we were close to last for the previous upgrades.
