I am assuming that the start and end dates are correct but that a typo has been made on the following line. Nobody's perfect least of all Virgin. :)

Last weeks work seems to have been carried out as per last weeks schedule.

Re: wow more upgrades

yep you're right. In the 'Description of Change' it states week commencing 28/04 and in the full description it says it starts on the 21/04. Hey, everything is `subject to change' according to VM. I guess whoever wrote it changed their mine half way through.:D

Hmmm. Luton area on Tuesday and Wednesday night. Wonder if on Thursday I'll be able to get a decent speed again after my 10mb upgrade...

Glad for ya Tay77. You mean that you got the free 4Meg to 10Meg upgrade and the UBR couldn't cope?

Re: wow more upgrades

think u will find that they r not all upgrades as in speed upgrades. They might just be UBR upgrades to make headroom for the 4-10mb upgrades when they should happen.

I know they're to resolve capacity problems;
`Network maintenance in the following areas is planned to improve the capacity of our network'

I know (read: assume) my UBR was upgraded, and most people I know are getting 7/8/9mb out of it. Whereas I'm now struggling to get 2.5mb. Hopefully, this'll get fixed by Thursday without me having to contact Virgin. Not holding my breath though!
