Re: How do I upgrade online?

Went back to 50. Either end of contract or price rise will be welcomed.

(they didn't tell me about the last one like I said before but I upgraded since so can't really use that)

50mbps my arse. It'll be under 20 by 9pm

Hit the "activate your new speeds" button on Monday at 4PM - still waiting despite reboots.

Came home and I have it now - even if it's very slow. Roll on 2am when I can use it! :/

Well, my account upgrade banner has been saying End of November since I came back to VM last month. Logged in today, and it's now saying March! Is this standard?

Re: How do I upgrade online?

Yes. But unless your area is spot on don't get too excited. I got up an hour ago and it was already starting to crawl. It's now 12:05 PM and it's starting to drop. In this area it's as follows.

12pm-3am gets slow and around 9pm it's on it's knees. 3am-11am it's okay and full speed but then it starts to crumble.

Mine too, its like dangling a carrot and then whipping it away, usual VM shambolic organisation. I have written a letter of complaint (something I usually end up doing every couple of years..)

Re: How do I upgrade online?

Finally my account banner said this was available. Clicked, received email, 24 hours later it was all done. Biggest improvement is in the upload speed!

My date was fluctuating between Jan-July but I logged in a few minutes ago after seeing your post and the banner was finally there. Got the e-mail, will check back in 24 hours, could really use that upload speed for this damn crashplan backup
