spiderplant - are you just being made aware of when stuff is ready or do you have access to the spreadsheets?
I am wondering about something regarding the South London area.

Ah I'm referring to what classes as the South London area for VM, encompassing regional headend Croydon serving hubsites New Malden and Mortlake.

Re: 50Mb areas

Finally after a complaint to Virgin Media head office they have had the postcode checker checked and confirmed it *was* mis reporting for Morden (fed from new Malden). It has now been updated to show that 50 Mb/s is available here.
I know someone who lives a little further towards Croydon who already has 50 Mb/s so Corydon is also done.

Re: 50Mb areas
Thinking of coming back to Virgin. Does anyone know when Stockport is being upgraded to 50 Mb?

Hi,
Yeah was aware of those two being done. The third hub, Mortlake, appears to be somewhat delayed though.

Re: 50Mb areas
Long time lurker/first time poster. Onto business :
I firmly understand that there is no rollout plan set in stone, but has anyone heard any rumours as to when Virgin will be visiting the green, green grass of Wales with their mythical 50Mb service? I'd previously heard April as a mooted month but this was a while ago and had hear nothing since.
Thanks for your time.
