100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Hey all,

I had notice website member site via myvirginmedia and click upgrade and saw broadband upgrade is now showing as 100Meg is available now at £45 a month. It say I can upgrade either XXL 50 Meg at £35 or 100 Meg at £45.

It suppose to be 100Meg ready in Telford area by March 2011 but look like they already done it early.

I better ring up virgin media to have 100Meg now :)

Upgrade to Virgin Media broadband: Size XXL from £25.00 a month
Upgrade to Virgin Media broadband: Size 100 from £35.00 a month


Oppps !!! I put headline !00Meg Should be 100. Can mod correct it please!

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Wow, you can get 00meg! I'm impressed. Better switch quickly from your 50meg, oh wait was it 30meg? Or have you changed again...

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I mean 100 Meg ! I want 100 Meg now :)

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

You have had more meg than a meg from the planet meg on a meg day ;)

There that made as much sense as your posts :LOL:

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Why would you want 100meg when you downgraded your 50meg because 30 is fast enough?

He is Virginmedia's favourite customer http://www.tcifactoringloans.com/images/cash-cow.jpg

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Upgrade, then downgrade to 20Mb, then re-upgrade to 30Mb.

Nah - what sort of chump would do that?

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

A Telford chump :)

re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Shouldn't it be 100Mb not meg??

WTF £70 !!!!! Why should I pay another £30 activation fee and £40 installation charge. I just phoned up virgin media and they say I must pay £70 as they cannot activation in quick start. Need a tech guy come out. Anyway I had paid by my card £70 today and tech guy come out on Monday, 21st Feb at between 8am and 1pm.

Can't wait! :)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Fail troll.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I just wonder how quickly he will downgrade again, I think he has Customer Services on his speed dial.https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/38.jpg

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

No, honest, my order had been submit today by virgin media as they say the tech guy must come out to activation 100Meg and will check my superhub on monday for 100Meg speed.

I can see ebilling charged me £70 now for next month billing.

I will have 100 Meg for at least 3 months for fastest downloading before I can go back to 30 Meg. I can afford to pay £45 for 100 Meg for 3 months.

I can't wait to see transfer rate of 10Meg a second and upload of 20 Meg!!!!!! :)

Masque why is virgin media won't activated 100Meg now because I explain to to customer service I already had a superhub and surely no need a tech guy come out ???? They say it need a tech guy to come out because of something to do with power level adjustment!

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

No idea try calling in the morning to verify it.

I find it strange that they could accommodate you on Monday 21st February as I would expected it to be Monday 21st March are you sure that you have the correct date.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I ring back and check again as they did say it will March 21st. So, I say why not 21st February ? They say my area is ready for 100 Meg but I need a tech guy come out as they cannot do a quick activation in a quick go. They told me the tech guy will come out 21st March !

I had try different staff, they say my order is completed and will be installation dates on 21st March not 21st Feb. :( :( :( Why it a hell a month to wait!

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Honestly Telford, what is wrong with you. Upgraded to 50 and then back to 30 as you claim it is fast enough for the house hold. Now you are already claiming to be upgrading to 100? And have paid yet another activation fee? VM must love you!!

It's states 12 month contract on that order form too. I hope they hold you to it!

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Because that is a more likely timescale considering how busy we are.;)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I had ring back cancel the order! I am not waiting for a month, no thanks. The order is now cancel.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Even the cat is surprised at that,https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/37.jpg

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I will ring up tomorrow to see if they can give me a quick activation 100Meg on same day! I hope so! It so stupid to wait for a month for the tech guy to come out and installing it.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I smell a big pile of bull excreta coming from under a bridge in Telford.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I had ring up a moment ago and they say my area is ready to place an order for 100Meg but it won't be available until 7th March of live 100Meg. So it normally take 2 weeks for tech guy come out and installing 100meg at my property.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Honestly this getting boring, another pointless post that brings no value to this forum whatsoever.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Entertainment value is still value, for those few who are entertained by the simple things in life...

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I take your point, it's been a long week ;)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Telford, typically conversation is performed with the larger of the orifices on your face, not the one nestled away in your posterior. I know in this case you're using a keyboard, but the point still stands. ;) :D

We have a new verbal definition for Cable forum.


Telford Babble so thats "its all a load of Telford Babble"

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I knew it would not take long for him to "Cancel" once I mentioned it was rather unlikely for him to get an install technician at such short notice, we would be lucky to get an engineer for Monday on a Friday night.https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2011/02/16.gif

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Nothing like a good expospeak joke, eh qas?

Having read a number of posts by this troll I'm starting to wonder if he's actually phoning VM at all, or just using a prop handset that's not connected to anything. :D

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I'm in Telford an this is what I got when I tried for 100mb.

You're the king of the broadband castle!

As an XXL customer you already get the fastest broadband in the land at 50Mb, so sit back and get downloading, streaming and gaming.

So all of Telford definately is not 100mb ready.

I also just tried a lot of different Telford TF postcodes and all got....

Register for updates

We're working round the clock to bring up to 100Mb broadband to our entire network, so it'll be with you soon.

Register for updates and we'll let you know the instant it's available in your street.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

What post code did you enter ? Not all in Telford get it. I remember I am the 1st person get faster upload in my street while my friend in other area of Telford haven't been upgrade to faster upload until a couple of weeks later.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

excellent keep the threads coming.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

First thing i do now when i go on the forum is look for a Telford cable thread. Its like reading the daily comics :)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

saying that if it was connected there isnt anything between the ears to register it :p:

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Even better! :D

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)

wow. thats the most rep iv ever got in the space of 5 minutes ha!

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Rep is all about quality, not quantity of posts :)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

It can't be a coincidence that telfordcable contains within it feed troll with a remainder of cab. So I suppose if you rearrange those letters again and add another, you get feedback troll, which is what he is.

That's right. I'm onto anagram humour now. So from idiocy, good things can come. :D

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

cany beat a nice bit of photoshop though ;)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

I thought Sheriffhales had it already?

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

They laid cable in Sheriffhales? WOW its a tiny 3 street village lol.

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

four and a half, actually...... (that was how NTT could trial their 69Tb/s speeds - only a small area).

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Now just in case anyone in the Telford area trys to ring up to order 100Mb you will find that as yet is not actually available in the area at present.;)

Shame, this news was totally tempting me to move home to telford

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

If you did, you may have bumped into telfordcable in the pub - think of the hours of interesting conversation that would ensue......

Re: 100Mb now available in my area :)
 

Think of the violence that would ensue.
