Hrm well I get 16Mbit+ 24x7 but I doubt that's anyone in the Murdoch family personally making my broadband awesome, it was awesome before they were involved and remained awesome after, so I'm not going to kiss up to them.
A comment like that is a good example of how successful the rebrand has been though, personally thanking Branson for your ntl:Telewest broadband's performance prior to him ever getting involved

Yer we know you've said several times, doesn't mean everyone is fine though, but I have heard that VM are doing investment in capacity upgrades, which is nice

Your not on Cable then are you? Good for you to get 16Mb 24/7. The rebrand has been awesome. Customer Service has improved a whole lot. Some awesome new packages have come out and the network seems a whole lot more stable.
As a plus, RB is one of the best people that could run the company. HE ACTUALLY CARES ABOUT THE CUSTOMERS and he wont have anything or anyone damage Virgin's reputation that he has built.
EDIT: Oh, did I forget to mention the free 20Mb upgrade and new 50Mb package thanks to RB? I don't mean to offend you  .

Re: 20 Meg From June
Again, not really Virgin's fault. What I see is--Sky is scared of VM (I would be too) so if they are going to loose customers or have a tough time what would you do? RIP OFF THE SOURCE! Haha! We have our answer?
They did the right thing to me.

You are amusing, you've no evidence that Branson is anything to do with any of the above
He controls about 1/5th of the company he doesn't run it. Nothing has been mentioned about a free 20Mbit upgrade merely that it will be available and 50Mbit has been knocked about for a year now.
Sorry to burst your RB bubble and thoughts that he is the second coming, I'll leave you to kiss your Branson poster and take your RB doll to bed with you.
