Double speed should be like this:
Planned VirginMedia Download Speed Upgrades
* 10Mb increased to 20Mb [2Mbps Uploads]
* 20Mb increased to 40Mb [4Mbps Uploads]
* 30Mb increased to 60Mb [6Mbps Uploads]
* 50Mb increased to 100Mb [10Mbps Uploads]
* 100Mb increased to 200Mb [20Mbps Uploads] |
I've highlighted the bit that's important for you. Hint: It says over 4million customers, not ALL customers. How many people do you think are actually on 100Meg? I'll give you a clue, it's not a lot.
Plus, the BBC headline isn't the words of Virgin, it's the words of the BBC. Here's Virgin's Statement:
