Sure, there will always be those who have a rough experience BUT percentage wise I think VM provides a better product as a whole compared to the bigger ADSL based companies.
A dire competition doesnt mean its logical to dish out free upgrades, its actually the opposite.

Probably won't be downstream management but upstream most definitely.
Ignition havent you claimed the upcoming traffic management will magic away the current VM congestion issues?

How will it resolve downstream congestion issues when its upstream only?

ignition you do sound like a PR guy lately.

You have dodged every question posted regarding congestion and continue to post this as if you advocate oversubbing capacity for marketing reasons.

When this gets rolled out my speed will be halved from double congestion.
