The cabinet may not be full as you understand it, but the resegmentation allows for more capacity

The Boltometer has been updated with the 120mb estimates, not sure if it's working properly though seeing as it says between September 2013 and December 2013 for me, if that's correct then it's a bit of a joke being a year and a half after the doubling to 100mb was done in my area.

Yeah it's been updated and like the forum list it says I should be on 120Mb yet I'm still stuck on 100 - as is myvirginmedia with the green box that says "When we've upgraded your area". very odd!

My area is currently being "upgraded" to support 100meg, but will take another year to enhance the network to allow for 120meg.
VM are masters at planning aren't they?

for the sake of 20mbit it is pathetic. They always said that the high end tiers account for a fraction of the customer base so how extra bandwidth are we actually talking about vs the number of customers they have banged up to 30mbit and 60mbit?

Pssst -
if you're one of our up to 100Mb customers, we're going to upgrade you to up to 120Mb. It may take a little while, but it's coming.
Hang tight - we estimate your area will be ready between June 2013 and November 2013.
Not sure what package you're on? Then log in to My Virgin Media or check your bill.
Ipswich area.
