Re: Legal action taken against Virgin Media throttling practices
Virgin Media have been quite clever about putting the detail of things like STM separate from the main terms of contract. That leaves the contract terms less lkely to need specific alteration since they simply refer to the policy written down elsewhere. I can't remember ever being formally told about a change in STM, capping or other policy. Vrigin media and it's predecessors use the add on policies to deal with those. I wonder whether the court's examination of the fairness of STM under contract law will hold that there was no need to properly notify consumers of the policy change. And burying it in a link from a website, which even when I know I'm lookinng for it i can't easily find, cannot possibly be deemed to have given consumers proper notice.
