I received the flyer today. When I entered www.viginmedia.com/gofaster, I got
http://www.cheapbroadbandcomparison.co.uk/ (eh?). After trying a few more times I finally got the right page.

I was informed that "Your modem can handle speeds of up to 10Mb", but also:

"To keep up to date with your request and future service improvements, please enter your preferred email address." and ..."we and other Virgin companies would like to contact you occasionally with special offers and rewards."

As I'm registered with the Telephone preference service (and I also told VirginMedia "no marketing phone calls", I'm wary that this will give them permission to overide it. After all, why should we have to "sign up" for the increase - just give it to us!
