You probably have more chance of getting FTTP than better upload speeds with Virgin. As much as I generally like Virgin and have been with them since the late 90's the one area they do fail majorly in is upload speeds.

Even on the top tiers the upload speed is barely acceptable in 2018, the lower tiers is a bit of a joke at this point.

50 / 3
100 / 6
200 / 12
350 / 20

Most average people don't care though, so until it becomes mandatory to compete with local companies which are installing fibre in residential areas I can't ever see upload speed becoming a major priority.
