YouTube 480p and iPlayer SD both stop and buffer like mad all the time. I am on 10 meg, not STM'ed, no downloads and is is 7:30PM.

The problem is definitely with VM. I teathered my phone and was able to play videos without problem over 3G from the same computer. I asked some friends on Sky ADSL and they said the videos played fine, so that rules out problems at the YouTube/iPlayer end.

This is a joke. What do I pay for if two of the most popular sites on the internet are unusable? Why are they rolling out higher speeds when they clearly can't cope with the current ones? I will be demanding compensation when I call them tomorrow.
