As a breakdown, this puts VM's current cable broadband base at a total of 4,850,600 customers, of which:
3,600,000 (74%) are still on 2 or 10mbps
Only 500,000 (10%) are on 20mbps
Only 200,000 (4%) are on on 30mbps
Only 200,000 (4%) are on 50mbps and 100mbps combined

And if you believe TBB's figures, 8% don't exist
Strange - VM's results state
Quote:
Nearly 1.2m customers currently subscribe to tiers of 20Mb or above, which represents over 28% of our cable broadband base. Nearly 700,000 subscribe to 30Mb or above, including nearly 200,000 customers on our 50Mb or 100Mb tiers
