50Mb areas - Page 64

Radeon · 26-06-2009, 00:08

I live near Neath and ordered the 50mb the day Neath was enabled (11th June), have to wait until the 29th June for an engineer to install it

, an 18 day wait is a bit much for a few minutes work that I could do in 2mins. The power levels where I live have always perfect and I have always been able to max out my connection on the top tier service in the seven years I have used NTL/Virgin.

Won't be long now though

Ho hum. We of the great unwashed of Hemel Hempstead hold up our modems for another week and say forlornly, "more please, sir", but to no avail.

Hey, don't take it personally. Someone has to be last.

Kymmy · 26-06-2009, 14:37

OMG, We're not last!!!!! Now if they did fixed IP's (or at least sticky) I'd go for it..

I was just checking this thread as I do each day, then I noticed that my area was on the list! I checked the 50mbit postcode checker and sure enough I can get it. Orderd it and should be installed next week. \o/

LOL

Im actually beginning to think that Hemel Hempstead may be last.

I reckon Uniplan and I are the only ones that are actually going to order it.

Either the demand is small in our area or its a Virgin Media conspiracy and they are worried that Uni and I are going to try and download the whole Internetz in a month

You aren't referring to saturating the 50Mbit 24/7 are you? I hope not, I quite like not having STM on my service thanks and people downloading the Internet not because they actually want the stuff but just because they can will give VM a much stronger case to stitch the rest of us up.

I'm on the VIP package. How much extra is it to upgrade to the 50MB broadband?

Probably Â£10 a month (excluding installation which some people have said they got away with others haven't)

That would be 500gb a day, would cost alot in HDD to keep that up, so personally I don't think i will be..

I did wonder after reading your signature.

I'm just suffering bandwidth envy, thanks to Virgin's superb network maintenance I'm presently enjoying 26kbps GPRS.
