BT's FTTH has no STM/Shaping what so ever and the trialists often enjoy 100Mbit (its set up as speed bursts so you only get that speed with big file downloads, quite a good setup).
AFAIK BT is expecting not to use any sort of shaping/throttling on their fibre rollout as the networks backhaul will be massively upgraded allowing for much less congestion and no need for shaping (much in the same way fios works).
VM, however, cannot afford to upgrade their backhaul/network linkups (as they have only just upgraded to 40G while BT is 100G)
