thedon the basic defenition of broadband suggests it is capable of certian things.

so in your view if a broadband connection cannot even load websites properly, cannot use any multimedia sites without issues and is useless for gaming it is still fit for purpose?

Also VM do make various claims on their website that their service is capable of certian things.

My argument is not around any guarantuees as such but one would expect basic internet applications to work.

Doubt me? ask trading standards yourself, its the responsibility of the seller to provide what they selling as fit for purpose.

The speed is a grey area which is why I am not saying much on it, my point is regarding things like iplayer, web browsing and gaming working.
