James I have an XL 30mb connection which for a few weeks was like dialup with F ratings on pingtest.com when I rang I was openly told it was contention and VM were aware of it , to be fair they gave me a fix time and it was ok from then on so I can't fault there openess and honesty, they even gave me a credit which I never asked for. My point is no service is perfect , just look at the 4pm -9pm 10mb traffic management , hit 1.5gb which is easy if say streaming a HD movie and your connection gets throttled. Sky BB Unlimited is 7.50 with no throttling and there are people who can achieve speeds perfectly acceptable , I agree with your point though that there are many who can only receive poor speeds and this is the real Achilles heel with ADSL.
