As I said further up the thread just wait a few weeks as you should be uplifted for free if you have the Superhub already.

Someone even said there is an internal memo stating its to cover the cost of sending it out.
Can you quote that it is just a charge for a superhub? If I wanted one I would have to pay £75.

So would you like to explain the "activation" charge?

It all means nothing to me as I'm on 50Mb but I am not a fan of false advertising or misleading of the consumer which VM seem to be experts at!

So why are CS telling people who already have a Superhub to pay £30?

Most likely reason.

Is the £30 taken when you ring up or is it added to your bill, or can you choose which?

It is usually added to your next bill.

I can't understand why vm are charging for this increase in broadband speed when they never did before. I have been on the xl package from the beginning when it was 512kbs and I have never been charged for any increase in speed, even when they said i needed a new modem to keep up with the speed increase, so why are they doing it now. I have my own router because i got tired of asking for one from them, because they kept on saying it was out of stock.

if that is the case then why all the mix up at virgin? or does it just depend if you get a nice cs rep or a mardy git

This upgrade needs new equipment so i guess they want us to pay towards the cost, don't mind paying a 1 off £30 as my monthly bill isn't going up infact it is going down 50pence because of it.

So they are taking money from people unlawfully?
