Virgin Media Broadband 20MB

[Psypher5]

Good luck getting their quoted speeds.

im not stupid and havent fallen for "oooh 24meg".

Its not me who pays the bill, so the cheaper the better. I know its going to be around 9-15meg, but hey better than 4meg thats more expensive.

I was getting 10meg+ during the trail on usenet.

do update the speed, i take it we got to reboot the modem yeh?

would it be wise to reboot a router on the same network aswell? or isnt this necessary?

Nice and informative. Now people will say moan that it just says "TBC"...

They didn't learn from the fiasco that was the last upgrades.

Waiting game it is then!

Cambridge TBC

They'll wonder why people will come out with "what was the point in putting that up?" - loads of people did that last time as it gave us nothing new.

Let the games begin

And so they should. It does kinda make you wonder WHY it took so long to get a crappy little list like that up?

Basildon - May

More likely end of May though

Bristol - To Be Confirmed

Extremely annoying, Bristol was early last time

 

[Robert]

Yeah it is annoying. It's especially annoying as they make it sound like hard work (getting the list up).

All of Scotland is TBC

I had my bill through a few days ago. It has already gone up £2. Now im being billed extra for a service they have no idea when it will be upgraded.

Is this fair? I think not!

I will be on the phone to them tonight right after i get home from work.

 

[iMacMart]

Good for you!


Let us know the outcome of that call

 

[Audiofreq]

Hey,

I'm not sure if i got the letter or not but when I initially signed up all those years ago when it was Blueyonder...then Telewest...then i lost track.

So if i'm a Telewest customer on 10 meg will that be getting upgraded too?

 

[schnipps]

How can they put the 2 quid on the bill if they havent or dont upgrade you in early in may? Mines gone up to 37 a month which is fine but id expect *** speed

 

[Robert]

The extra £2 is an overall price increase - not just for 20meg.

 

[Hurley]

The extra £2 is an overall price increase - not just for 20meg.

So whats the price for 10meg? Providing you've had the 20meg upgrade?

Also is everyone getting this upgrade who is on VM/NTL, or do you have to apply or whatever to it?
