That has nothing to do with it. Virgin have a history of advertising things to retain customers, that then take up to 18 months to materialise. Some may suspect certain leaks come from them, as another way of retaining customers.
Took a year and a half for my area to get their speed upgrade On this very forum a VM employee posted that a
product had launched, yet 7 months later no customers have it.
So its easy to consider varied reasons for the post.
