Oh, I am not knocking VM exclusively there. That is a trait of a lot of ISPs..


I do believe, however, that Virgin deserve some criticism for the fact that the average 20 meg user gets just over half what they pay for though. If you bought (say) a car that was capable of 100 mph (assume for the sake of argument that you have enough private land you can drive on, so speed limits do not apply) and some of the time it wouldn't go over 60, you'd be within your rights to take it back and demand a refund/replacement.
