Hub 4

Hi I received an email from Virgin today stating they would love to update by Hub (from Hub 3 to Hub 4) for free. The reason claimed is to improve my WIFI. However, I run my HUB 3 in modem mode so whether the HUB is good at WIFI is of no interest. Also, I'm only on 200Mb broadband (and in the centre of Brighton the max I can get is 350Mb) and from previous threads HUB 4 is only of benefit speed-wise for speeds greater than 600Mb but are there any other reasons why I should accept Virgin's kind offer?

According to the email all I have to do is claim my HUB 4! The email is plastered with buttons to press to start the claim process (ok, two buttons) for self installation.

I'm wondering what's in it for Virgin seeing as it will cost them money and I haven't complained about poor WIFI so why the offer?

I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth however, so advice welcome.
