Yep it does except for sfid, cheers. Well pleased, not so much the speed I was ok on 120 but the fact he reduced my package by £8 on the vip

Ah, but I'm not happy to be recontracted. Got an £11 loyalty discount at the moment, guess I'll wait as my update isn't far away allegedly (May to July).

Still unfair that new customers get this straight away and loyal (since 1996 in my case), have to wait.

But its what I'd expect from VM (oh for Bell Cablemedia - they were nice people to deal with in 1996 -made sure my 8 month pregant wife had access to our property at all times despite most of the neighbourhood being dug up; sometimes it would have been nice if they had denied her access ;) )

(Yes really. My work requires me to, occasionally, replicate high bandwidth environments.)

I upgraded to 100mb on Thursday, checked on my virginmedia it says I have been upgraded , but on checking the superhub and doing a re boot I am still on 60mb down and 3mb up. Should I have 100mb by now?

Just gone from 60 to 100Mb down in Hemel. Upload has gone to 6Mb.

Serious problem in my area with very high utilisation and virgin media say it won't be fixed within 3 months later and told me I had to stay with below 2Meg for now. I only signed up 152 Meg a week ago, oh great, I cannot cancel it now as it went pass over 7 days cooling off period. Wish I never went back with Virgin Media.

Feel angry now!:mad::mad::mad:

Yes, give it another reboot if it's not pulled down the new config i'd get back on the phone to them.

There is a chap on this thread with a very similar problem to yours and he found a fix. Why don't you contact him and find out what he did?

Had my upgrade to 152mb for a week now and it's still rock solid. Downloading from my server right now via FTP, just a single file with a single thread and it's not budging from 19.6MB/s :)

Putting 30 days notice in, to cancel my 152Meg service. As it horrible slow as a snail. Only getting 1.7Meg out of 152Meg via ethernet cable as the superhub wifi is disabled. Had enough with it fed up with it. Disconnection next month April 10th.
