My view too, which is why I upgraded to 20mb a month ago and got the free hub.

So if your on a lower tier, upgrade before the 1st feb to get the free superhub.

Re: 20 Mb/s to 30Mb/s free upgrade

There is just a little ambiguity on that though - only time will tell, but at present it looks possible that those phoning up to get the bump up to 30meg, if they already have the Superhub, may be able to get the bump up for free.

Yeah, whatever.
It's just you have something of a penchant for nit-picky digs which tend to send a thread off into squabbling. Having a go at a corporate massive's printed and published material which should be tick perfect is fine in my book. Challenging someone's grammar on an internet forum as a retort is puerile and has been for as long as I can remember..

It's either that or I feel VM's retentions dept will get very busy next week.

I wouldn't have minded paying £30 for the superhub, but paying £30 for someone to press a few keys on a keyboard is another matter entirely.

There is no ambiguity whatsoever. The upgrade has not been announced and until such time as it is no-one knows who will get what for how much or whatever.

When it is finally announced then everyone will know what is available at what cost, if any.

Chill out peeps and wait.
