500Mb is a new tier so that in itself is the uplift for now.

While that might be true, its unfair to have the same upload as a lower tier.

In the grand scheme of things it's not as much about wanting more but expecting more when you're on the top package. You don't expect to get the same upload as a lower tier and you would expect the same ratio of download to upload the lower tiers seem to be getting.

M350 is the current top tier that's widely available.

M500 is really a bundle specific download increase for Ultimate Oomph at the moment.

Yeah i thought that was a bit strange as well. They make a good start realigning all the tiers to 10:1 and then release a new tier with old school ratios. I know there is only only going to be a fraction of customers on 500mbit but maybe they did some tests and determined 50mbits up isn't viable atm and they need to wait for docsis 3.1.

Incidentally, i have had a letter through saying my bill is going up by £5 so that has paid for my upstream upgrade.

Whether it's a bundle is irrelevant in my opinion. It's an internet speed that's available. If we're moving to a 10:1 ratio then it would be nice not to be left out.

Honestly, it's probably most likely a classic result of The left arm of Virgin not knowing what the right arm is doing. I expect it will get uplifted eventually.

Possible upload increase to 10mbit according to a post in the firmware thread.
