I can't help wondering if the problem is that we all want something extra special for as limited payment as we can get..and that's just not possible.It's not possible whatever the product or service we could be talking about.

The fact is if we want the best then we may have to just pay more.If we pick the cheapest option every time we are just in danger of over subscribing that particular system.

And yes it could be argued that VM and others really shouldn't take on more subscribers than they can handle but in such a cut-throat business I thing we could be urinating in the wind to assume such a thing.

Perhaps it's down to the advertising but I think at the end of the day a lot of people want something that just isn't feasible given that people's expectations keep outpacing the realities.

Is there a danger that Plusnet will not be able to sustain this offer given that their customers will take them at their word? I suspect the answer is yes.
