That one finished early too.

What problems did you have with it? You didn't post anything here (unlike your problems with 20Mbps)
Obviously I wasn't on the 50mbit service during the roll out as it wasn't available. I was initially on 20mbit, then I downgraded to 10mbit, then I downgraded to 2mbit. As my speed was often around 200kbit I couldn't see any point in paying for a higher tier. I was incredibly close to cancelling and calling Bee, but in the end Virgin managed to fix things just before I pulled the plug. It took months though, many month, and despite paying virtually nothing for my cable (due them giving me discounts due to having no service for so long) I still felt robbed.

At least my current CATV set-up is alive during the roll out, proving they have at least learnt something from past mistakes. Of course I have no clue if they've even touched my area yet, so for all I know the worst may be yet to come. Perhaps it's best they just leave it as is.
