I beg to differ on the lab tests especially since i saw the same dns sysip.net as documented by bt customers on the illegal trials on vm in 2007 belive it or not and i belive a good few other people had the problems i had but put it down to virus or browser hijack at the time.

I also belive that vm also did these trials roughly as i can recall 1-2 month after the VM name rebrand, as a company just like bt vm could not do just lab tests to many tick boxes have to be ticked before it is fully rolled out, how many people would join a trial that involves you being spied upon with no benefit compared to a trial for extra bandwith not very many im sure you'll agree, plus those network impact reports have to tick all the right boxes before live also.

Considering vm changed there T&C's in the rebrand to accomodate phorm for such a trial in 2007 were in place, then and the very fact that they were going to roll out by now if the bt stuff didnt hit the fan (checkout the youtube videos of kent posted by phorm themselves promoting phorm back in febuary-march saying all the 3 isp's were having phorm turned on in a couple of weeks) is just another part of all the puzzle.
Especially more in my eyes considering vm have ignored my last 2 emails where all i wanted was a written denial by themselves that i was no part of any 2007 trial of any phorm kit by hand or e-mail.

If any high up vm employee sees this prove me wrong, my calls to support in between about may-july 2007 should be documented by yourselves.

Instant switch off if phorm ever goes live by myself, been a customer for over 6 years a 18 month bt line contract and be unlimited will sort me out.

Pity all the good work telewest done with the customer back in the day has gone and all were left with is not a lot.
