Isn't it about time the monopolies commision got involved and force Virgin to unbundle the fibre connections like BT was forced to do. That way we could get high speed connections from a decent company instead of these morons.

Telkom Speedy ID you can beat the Virgin. I support you.

They've already set up shop with the government on a grassing spree, now with the superfast internet it wouldn't surprise me if they had you watched especially from day 1! £51 for superfast internet perfect for piracy and you're under lock and key, awful

quote :-

The president of the Fibre to the Home Council of Europe, Joeri Van Bogaert, said: "Cable modem can be complementary to fibre to the home (FTTH) but is in no way a substitute," he said.

"The main issue is speed. While FTTH can easily deliver speeds of up to 100Mbps and could eventually pump out 1000Mbps, Virgin's service offers 50Mbps and is asymmetric.

"This means that uploading content will be much slower than download speeds."

what a load of cobblers, fraid the star and sun readers will sign up in droves tho lol, thats without the normal throttling and only if you dont torrent (P2P) and are in a helium balloon in the jet stream :O)

I'm on bethere and only get 3mb out of the "upto" 24Mb broadband cos of BT and their crap infrastructure. If Virgin laid cable in my part of the city I would probably jump ship as could likely get a faster sustainable speed out of virgin, even if I hit the fair use policy after downloading 3 or 4 emails.

It will be only available where there is fibre. i.e. not where I live.

heh, yeah 50Mb for all of thirty seconds when you then break your fair use policy.

Sky recently dropped their "fair use" terms in favour of unthrottled, unlimited use. I may only get 3Mb, but i get 3Mb 24/7 no matter what i do with it.

Bullsh1t!

code ended QFT!

Yada yada.. they can't support the customers they already have at the speeds already available.. yada yada yada

Your British Pound Just Ain't Same as It Used To Be. One Pound is About One Euro Dollar today & Expected to Fall Lower this Winter. So 24 mb/s for $18 is Fantastic, $50 offer is faster, yet could You Hook Server Farm to your Cell Phone?, i think NOT. Just say Yes to Everything & Strip your rights back to 3 gb Data trasfer Each Month, well, it'd be good Minute of Service every Month for Only fifie BucksOf Course UNLIMITED as Such, Be SWEET. Drashek
