L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

Does anyone know when virgin are rolling out their upgrades to L package customers? Their website is already advertising M with a 20meg connection but I'm still only getting 10.

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

Broadband M will receive a speed boost to 10mb and the price will be increased.
Broadband size L is staying as it is for the time being, though.

So your speed is fine!

oh, i read the page wrong. just looked at the middle one and assumed it was L. didn't realise they'd dropped M

Easy done;)

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

I am going to be peed off if they increase 10 to 20 for free. You have only just been upgraded from 4 to 10. If you want 20mbit pay for it.

No he just misread the link.

good, i'll calm down now :)

So Virgin Media are upgrading 2mb to 10mb? If they have the capacity to do this then why do they choke peoples speed when they download a certain amount? Surely if their equipment is capable of giving 10mb as basic it can handle it anyway.

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

it can't handle it, that is why they have got docsis 3 which is supposed to be the bess knees yet they feel the need to stm the 50mbit users by 75% when they said the network is so top notch that there wouldnt be any need for it.

i think they should give everyone 200mbit so they can advertise they are the fastest isp in the country and then stm everybody by 99% when they download 1gb. It will be alright, it is the Ts & Cs :)

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

There is no STM on 50Mbit, and nothing has been announced about what the STM will be

The 75% figure for XXL is completely made up!

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

i know, but given that all the other tiers have a 75% reduction you would think it is only fair that we get the same. Going from 50mbit down to 12.5 sucks ass so much. I think 20mbit would be more fair.

Re: L package 10-20 meg upgrade?
 

We will only know the STM if and when they publish it until then its all purely supposition.
