I left because of Phorm, increasing STM , BPI love fest , customer services
[cost of support calls and the whole money back if it's not your fault thing, though this is reportedly free again it left a bad taste in my mouth]..

I was getting 4M (just about to be upgraded to 10M), now I'm on a slower ADSL connection for about the same money (including rental) 3.5M but I get 800kbps upload which is very useful and makes up for the difference in my mind.

I would have added cost as an excuse but the 10M upgrade ruled that out. I just generally think VM is a badly run network despite superior technology, and they dont want people like me (fairly heavy downloaders)

Even with 10M + stm I could download more than a striaght 3.5M but it would just be frustrating to be STM'd just at that time I wanted something in a hurry.
