Laughable, and another thing that was not made clear. Initial talk was all about doubling both download an upload. The happy-clappy Usain Bolt "doublespeed" website made no reference to upload speeds (someone will tell me in tiny print somewhere there was a link to something which did, but, really, even if so that does not count). I know that eventually (no timescale I am aware of) the upload speed will also double, but even then it is tragically poor compared to the other "fibre" offerings.

How long will it be before Virgin's fibre rivals start adding upload speeds to their promotional material and what will that do to Virgin's claimed reputation for speed?
