The price is £52.00 STM wont introduce for awhile and I have heard it will be capped down to 12Mb after you have downloaded something like 15Gb

Re: Virgin's 50Mb broadband arriving December 15?
I heard that if your good Santa will bring you it for free this Christmas.
I have a friend who works at Liverpool and he doesn't know.
What he does know is this:
He doesn't know, customer service doesn't know, TSC - Digi- Telco agents don't know and neither do their respective team leaders. The above also applies for those in Pune, Deli, Scotland & Swansea.
I'm sure those that work for VM who post here can also confirm that they don't know either. I guess we'll know when its released or just before

then when their area does have a tentative date announced they will whinge because it runs over the estimate.
Then they do get the service, they will whinge because it isn't what they expected ....

I think we can add the speculation of price and STM here Gaz

Re: Virgin's 50Mb broadband arriving December 15?
It's amazing the amount of bulls**ting goes on in call centres.
As an aside, could this be merged with the *other* 50Mbit thread?

As previously posted, i'm due to receive my new modem tomorrow and start a 2 month trial, from what i understand the roll out will begin sometime after this trial, although i'm not 100% sure. As for price i was told the price has not yet been decided and i would be informed of the price during the trial period.

Re: Virgin's 50Mb broadband arriving December 15?
It has been decided, its £52 unless they decide last time but as I have been told by my friends in VM that its already on the system for the trials @ £52 so I think they have decided just not released it yet.
