No. At the time of writing that, you were the only person who had offered any meaningful reply.

Something you could have done yourself as a VM customer is read the T&C yourself:

11. The following acts are also not permitted:
ii) re-selling, or making any charge for watching or using, all or any part of the services;
It's not for you to say whether I should become involved or not. Thank you for answering my question about the t&c's though, that's what I was looking for and I can now pass on the information.

Cheers for the tip, but I have a feeling that, as they live so rurally, that this either isn't an option or it's slower than the speeds he would be able to offer.

If he is found to be breaking the t&c's, he could well end up having his own fast BB cut off. That's before any technical, taxation and legal considerations are considered. I personally wouldn't risk it, but in the end it's a decision only he can take.
