Here's the original press release for 50mb from the 15th December 2008:
http://pressoffice.virginmedia.com/p...740&highlight=
Here's a couple of lines that stood out to me:
"Premium launch offering includes unlimited downloads, no traffic management, plus the UK’s fastest wireless offer"
"The 50Mb service includes a new EuroDOCSIS3-compatible modem, an unlimited service with no traffic management
at launch"
"Virgin Media will be trialling a variety of different approaches to
traffic management and upstream speeds, to improve the unique performance of this service."
So it would appear that Virgin did confirm traffic management would be introduced at some stage. So the main question now is how many people on 50mb are feeling the improvement to the unique performance of this service since traffic management was introduced? If they have been trialling a variety of different approaches I'll assume the one they've implemented proved the best? Seriously, has anyone seen any improvement?
What I can't find on this forum is thread after thread, page after page of 50mb customers disgrunteled with their service prior to traffic management. How can this possibly be seen as an improvement to the unique performance of this service.
I can't wait to see what bull**** they churn out when launching 100mb. VM, you have lied to us all!
