Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
What a load of rubbish VM are turning out to be. Just go tmy 10meg upgrade and jump on tonight and think 'this is slow'. Just tested and i have been capped. Now usually i would not mind as i do download a bit but the funny thing is i have done nothing in the last 2 days. In fact i have hardly used the net at all.
Is it possible that VM have upgraded but can't deliver what they promise?
