Hi all,
Just a quick update, Virgin admitted they were in error trying to impose another 12 month contract term. The contract has been removed and the £11.50 discount has stayed because my old £9.50 discount is no longer on the system. So I keep my 10MB and no contract, win win

.
Would have been sad

: to lose the speed now I’ve had chance to play about.
Thanks for all the replies.
