Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

They do seem to have slowed down but by the end of May they should have 15 complete, in 3 months, that's 5 per month and with 33 still to go - I think they need to pull their finger out else it might not be the end of summer when they've finished, at least not this British one :p:

I want my free upgrade, and I want it now..............


Actually, when I get it, I'll be happy (as it's free).

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Wow free, that's a really good deal you've got, how did you manage that? I have to pay for my broadband connection* :rolleyes:


* It's not just the connection I'm paying for though...network repairs, upgrades, etc.

cable.ubr02.soli.blueyonder.co.uk is the info I get in the Connection box, what area does this mean I am in? I see no "Solihull" in the schedule.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

I'd say you're in the Birmingham area.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

yeah your in b'ham, i get the same.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Is this confirmed? i'm in NG5 and still not upgraded :(

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

It says TBC for the Nottingham area.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Strange - I will be paying the same for 10Mb as I am currently for 4Mb; seems like a free upgrade to me (which is completely different, imho, from part of the revenue from my payments being used for network repairs and maintenance :dozey:). I don't remember any of my other utility suppliers giving me extra electricity/gas/water for the same price as I was paying.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

foreverwar, Does this count. British Gas has said it's giving every customer 4 free energy saving light bulbs :D

I'm waiting for the upgrade with mixed feeling. Will it work, :) or will Baguley server just laugh in our faces. :(

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

cool! I'm with British gas.. I wonder if I'll get 8 bulbs - I'm with them for both gas and electricity!! :D

I wonder if I'll get those bulbs the same day Manchester gets 10mb too :D

actually, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.... report to follow... *roflmao* :D
