I think the people talking about compensation for lost important correspondence might be in for a shock.
A cynic might think they pay enough each month for a reliable BB, a decent email service and a kitchen sink ! Longstanding customers are VMs most profitable. With fibre speeds now competitive they need to up their game, and not lower service/standards. VM used to be reliable for BB, they are now increasingly flaky. Reliability beats, silly headline speeds, that no one actually needs.
