Again 18 months, what I would say is I pay £48 for xl tv tivo plus v+hd box plus unlimited landline, it's an old friens family deal plus pay the line rental upfront for the year. Also just to mention happy with 12mb upload, any relaxing in the STM maybe before speed increases ha
My experience with the 76 and 20 service from BT isn't impressive at all. As we all know the limitations of the BT networK is limiting the speeds. For example im paying the BT infinity2 product which im approx 700-800m from the cabinet,(thats being generous) my line is capable of 68Mb, the router actually connects approx 52-57Mb and at present when conducting a speed test im getting between 51-53Mb. Upload anywhere between 12-16Mb.

Now after complaining to BT last week about another issue i happen to mention the speeds ect im getting only to be told that if my speeds are between 50-68Mb they consider this good and no issue. After a lengthy discussion where i pointed out the this was a very wide window and wasn't happy only to be told that that is in the contract and they will not and DO budge on this.

So Virginmedia customers would put up with this, not they wouldn't
