^Thought I'd share this (the report header is misleading since those on 100MB will only get a 20% speed increase whilst those currently on 20MB will be getting a 200% increase to match up to what those on 30MB will be getting)

Also those who have modems that can't deal with the faster speeds will get new equipment for free.

I'm also in the growing April-July band for the speed upgrade (10MB to 20MB)

maybe only people with just the internet will get this increase and people with internet/phone/tv won't get this increase?

Sorry, but I got a e-mail stating that my bundle price is going up by £3.50 although they haven't even bothered fixing the changes from the last two price increases since we're supposed to be paying £30/month for TV, phone and internet, but it's now almost £40/month and with all the nagging call they make with "do you want this, that or the other" my father has had enough and is moving everything to sky (£55/month for all TV channels (except the premium cost channels), one multiroom unit (free for the first year) phone and unlimited internet is nothing to be sniffed at since I doubt virgin media could match that) and considering the amount of problems that have been going wrong with the internet the price increase is the straw that broke the camels back.
