I take it you mean 56KB for upstream and 1.2MB for downstream..

Those figures taking into account overheads is about right

Because that would be an inefficient use of the space that they can then charge you for. Do you not understand Virgin's business model? Oversell, then screw the customers when the service is gobs**te.
