Certainly for those within a reasonable distance of their cabinet 60/15 on a single pair and 120/30 on two is quite feasible.

When I checked maps showing coverages of both providers it showed BT only currently cover about 20% of VM and by end of rollout will still be under 50%. So VM will still have weak competition in many areas anyway.
