Why are the upload speeds so slow? I have also heard that Virgin throttle at peak times. Can you tell me if I am correct on this?

Fibre just installed hopefully it will go up to 80/20

Edit: Was 5 down 1 up before the install

Getting fibre next week, it be nice to have 38 up and 8 down.

Cheap here in Serbia too, 35 pound/month (no line rental) for that, plus HD TV with 4 HD sport channels that play an amazing amount of Premier League matches, more than BT Sport. And I get HBO too.

I moved here from the UK where I had an 8 down, 0.8 up ADSL connection with BT. Jeeeeeesus Christ it's like browsing with a turbocharger now.

Just curious - for those of you with a Virgin Fibre 152mb package, what speed do you actually get with them? The full thing?

Upload speed upgraded for free, they didnt even tell me !

You will never see a perfect 80/20

Thats true although my profile is 78 at the moment and it can go to 80 so i should be able to squeeze a few more mbit out of it

Just got FTTP 200/20 installed this week. More than happy with that!!

How much roughly does fttp cost you?

millsd44 · 2 Nov 2014 at 11:23

BT option 3 is £53 a month, I got a £125 gift card as well.

Upload seems low?

kefan77 · 2 Nov 2014 at 13:14

6 is right for 100 service

BriT · 2 Nov 2014 at 13:15

100mb

JimAroo · 2 Nov 2014 at 13:26

6 is right if you was originally on the 60/3 package, the 100/6 upgrade was free.

If i remember correctly it went like:

30 to 50
60 to 100
100 to 152

I know the original 100 package had 10 upload, but that no longer exists with it going to 152.

BriT · 2 Nov 2014 at 13:29

Ah ok, cheers,
