Thats how it should be. If they sell a service that is unlimited then it should be without limits, the minute Virgin started STM'ing people and sending out letters they were guilty of fraudulent practices. I remember the good old days of Telewest and Blueyonder, and frankly since it changed to Virgin the service has gone down like the Hindenburg.

They wont talk real numbers because it shatters the illusion of their unlimited service, despite the fact it is already well and truly shattered by their use of STM and other forms of traffic shaping, along with letters about overuse.

Next they will rebrand the term "Free Internet" for which you will pay £35 and will be restricted to viewing websites that end in .co.uk, and you can only use it on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
