Great news, but still waiting for the full 10mb to be delivered!!!
"Virgin Media is to offer 100Mb" will soon change to "Virgin Media is to offer up to 100Mb."

So in reality you will end up paying for 100mb but will get 50mb!

why need that fast, as long as DK loads instanly what does it matter.

Got a letter off them the otherday, bastards putting the price up.
keep meaning to ring up and moan.

[ianmac]

I am allways ringing them up to have a moan..

Coz I am only getting 2.5mb from that & they keep asking me to upgrade to the 50mb,

I just go mad & say that if I can only get 2.5mb out of the 20mb, then it ain't never gonna happen is it..

[HoTTDubbER]

Yes, and by the time they finish capping you, it will be back to 10mb again...

the 50s been going down in price 50mbs only 40? now it used to be 50? when i signed up

They said that about the 20mb when it came out, that they would not cap it & then when the 50mb came out they capped it.

So don't take their word for it that they won't do the same again..
