Yup I haz had a letter from the boss man himself - Usain Bolt.

I get upgraded to 120mb at no extra cost.

So 30 get 60, 50 get 100 and 100 get 120.

If I were staying here I'd be downgrading to 50mb and getting the free upgrade.

If i had the choice and stayed in a covered area it would be virgin 100mb. as I dont understand bt - theres no plan on where gets this infinity rather than roll out over town they do one then move to the other side of town then stop, then do another then stop? tbh its a bit of a joke fibre to cab then a copper tail out to the old cack network, cutting edge not. the only folks who can get 80meg on their network are the ones who have an infinty cab near them and stay on a brand new development that the builder puts in the correct network to the homes. If virgin would spend on expanding their network they would do well.

As you know Keith I am entirely impartial.  :wink:

In my opinion BT's big plan is to give as many people fast broadband and then roll out their next gen network across it. Their coverage is second to none and even on older area networks the tails are so short the effect on bandwidth is negligible.

Time will tell provided BT haven't got rid of all their engineers to do the work.  :ashamed:  :popcornsoda:

Virgin are going to be expanding their network over the next few years, but it also depends on the local councils allowing us to dig the streets up. From what I understand, for the areas we can not cover we will be offering broadband through bt systems (mailnly for those living out in the sticks) as bt's network if publicly owned (paid for by tax payers) so we can have access to it where as our network is private so only we can use it  :happy2:

I thought the big plan would mean that under LLU agreements BT would also gain access to VM's network.

I'm pretty sure BT's network isn't publicly owned as they have been a private company since the 80's and if it needs fixing they end up doing it from their pockets not from public funds. Any agreements for LLU sharing that allow competitors access to BT's network are only put in place to ensure fairness by Ofcom.  :smiley:
