That sucks
sorry to hear your having problems too mate, i read they were bringing back free CS calls... too right too, with all the bull we go through with them it's kinda insulting to have to pay 25p a min aswell... heh.

KFK,
Is it just because you pay for a 20 meg service that you want a 20 meg service. for surfing, can you tell the difference between pages that load. newsgroups like easynews or giganews should max out your 20 meg connection so unless you are download a crapload of movies or music the what difference does it make if you are getting 14 meg or 20 meg.

I surf, game, stream etc etc so yea i do
'need' the line so to speak and yes of course i want what i'm paying for... i guess everyone would? The fact is i'm not expecting a solid 20meg line constantly i'm expecting near it though, 18-19meg would be lovely and i wouldn't have a problem.. damn even 17 would be nice.
There becomes a big problem when people just
'make do' when their getting a crappy service and that's not me, i would rather get it resolved. VM in my opinion/experiences are sloppy with their customers, i come here for information/help to
1. sort out if its anything my end and..
2. to be well enough informed about the service to put up a decent argument if need be to the uppity CS people who try give you the run around
When your running a network like me... pc / laptop / ps3... every little counts really, my girlfriend is online alot as am i.. i also got this line for gaming without lag which i know isn't just resulting in my connection but that contributes to it.. i want the service i'm paying for that's all i ask.
Also i don't know about everyone else but i don't actually have alot of money, this 20mb line is 'my little treat' so to speak and i should be able to get a decent service/quality for £37's which is alot to me.
Anyway i guess that's a summary of my point.. cheers for your opinions / help thus far everyone
