Virgin Media Upgrade
I'm on the 'L' 10Mb package with a Superhub. My question is, when Virgin media upgrade my area, will I get 20Mb or 30Mb (as I have a super-hub)?



If I get 20Mb after the upgrade, how much extra will I have to pay, if I decide to go for the 30Mb package? (I already have the Super-hub)


...I just have/want VM broadband...


Thanks

Re: Virgin Media Upgrade
10Mb will be going to 30Mb if you already have a superhub...

I checked my online account and it says my upgrade speed will be 20Mb.

Then you'll be upgraded to 30Mb.. Only those on L without a superhub will be upgraded to 20Mb.

I'd guess it either hasn't been updated with the information that you have a superhub, or it just isn't working properly.. or maybe both?

Is the Configuration File for both the 30Mb upgrade and the 20Mb upgrade (if you don't have the Super-hub) the same?

Re: Virgin Media Upgrade
If I call VM, will I be able to get 30Mb today, even though my area has not been upgraded - should be done "by the end of August".

I just called VM regarding the upgrade and they upgraded me to 30Mb for free, even though my area was being upgraded in August.

No, because I already had the Super-hub.
