Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014

We got a mailer today telling us we're being upgraded from 20mb to 50mb sometime after August. Maybe a way of making the recent price rises a little less bitter...

When did they tell you last year, when they announced the speed increases, that you would get the boost?

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014

Why do VM repeatedly send me emails telling me my internet connection is going to get supercharged. Each time they tell me I'm going to get 152Mb they give me a link to find out when it will happen. Four times now I have re-discovered that it will be between August 2014 and January 2015 and am told I have already registered my wish to be told as it happens

Each time they send me an email I expectantly follow the link hoping for a pleasant date change.

Hmm, i had (wrongly) assumed they would have the old upload speeds ie 50/5 and 100/10. Guess not.

Re: Virgin Media 150Mb Coming 2014

That upload is shocking once again. Only just onto 10:1 and already all the products have fallen below it.

I see they've increased upload ever so slightly. Only by very little but every KB counts.
