NTL:Telewests new name: Virgin Media
 
They've announced it internally. Not very inspiring.

I thought one of the ntl:Telewest moles would have posted it on here by now.

As an end-to-end network owner, we have competitive strengths in the quality of broadband service that we offer. Customers can receive consistent speeds no matter where they live on our network and our top
speed of 10Mb is available throughout our broadband addressable areas. In November, we will be launching a commercial trial of a 50Mb broadband service to paying customers.
Looks like 10Mb as standard has bitten the dust then ;)
BTW..... too slow Stu lo :p:

Yeah, saw this over at the Grauniad... http://business.guardian.co.uk/story/0,,1942168,00.html [guardian.co.uk]. Makes sense to me - the Virgin name has much more value than NTL.
