I'd be inclined not to believe that. Why? Because Virgin Media will lose a lot of customers if they make the service unreliable like that. A lot of people won't phone to complain of a fault. They'll just cancel and move to Sky and one of the hundreds of other ISPs.
It would be cheaper, in the long run, to use new tiers (such as they are doing) to coerce those using Ambits onto superhubs.
