Well on my XL adsl offnet I am told it's unlimited. I tend to use more than 40gb a month.

Oh hell.

Ok, can someone who works for virgin confirm if this is for ADSL only, or for cable?

The "CUSTOMER_TYPE=cable" in the URL makes me think its for cable as well as ADSL.

edit - Never mind. I see on the page it states NATIONAL even though the radiobutton at the top says CABLE

Re: Download limit per month?

With the term ADSL being employed, this would suggest its not on the Cable connections?

Can members please resize pictures that are too large to be displayed normally otherwise those on smaller screens end up with a corrupted layout. I've reduced the images to links

Virgin media's cable services don't and have never had monthly caps in my experience.

i noticed this yesterday and sent a note from the page, the 100mb bundle has the ling in the small print to take you to the traffic management details page this then sends you to the actual details, however it seems to send you to the details for the national broadband service and not the cable.
