Re: Legal action taken against Virgin Media throttling practices
About time somebody took it to them. VM are the only UK broadband provider, I believe, actively throttling connections daily after a certain download limit. While others have a FUP and an acceptable monthly download limit on ADSL, Virgin don't, but they throttle those deemed "heavy" (they say the top 5% of users, I would reckon it's about 25% of the customer base). So all power to the OP for taking them to court, especially since according to him they changed the terms of the contract.
