This stink to me of BT wanting to charge over inflated prices to offer fibre bb connections. They also want max penetration of the market and have no competition which also tells me that they won't be doing it in VM areas for the forseeable future because they want to invest in areas where they are going to make money and where there is competition they won't make the sort of money they can if they offered fibre optic bb in non vm areas.

Where is your evidence that BT will not be providing to VM areas?
After all, if they are after " Max penetration " that you refer to your statement with all respect is blown out the water.
I for one would welcome any competition that gives the choice that even Richard Branson has stated customers should have.
People in vm areas could easily switch if BT are offering a better deal, which is all about choice after all, I do not agree with your sentiments at all with due respect.

The reason VM slow right down is because of STM.

Close, but no quite right see above

Atleast you admit that vm slows down for some reason, vm advertising BS does not even claim that their service slows down at all! merely ridiculing any other service provider, bring on the competition thats what I say.
VM must be a tad worried, how much are these adverts that they are running?
