Then sky release figures of a mere 20% of customers get the advertised speeds which is unacceptable

The above are examples and in no way represent Virgin or Sky



He does not need proof as no broadband is fail-proof and there will always be complaints but I agree with what you are saying by delivering your evidence of Virgin's multiple awards and fewer complaints than other ISP's
The other 20% of Virgin customers are probably not using any anti-virus software and or using an old 486!

I have never found the speed test to give me less than 29MB on my 30MB connection.
