last friday we launched a brand-spanking-new virgin media cable service sales website for new and existing customers. The site is called shop.virginmedia.com and it replaces the old allyours.virginmedia.com. We’ve made it a whole lot quicker and easier for customers to choose and build a bundle that’s just right for them.
We’ve also launched 2 new tools: The build order tool for new customers to build their own bundle (see image below) and the change package tool for existing customers to view and manage their cable services.
looking good :d

Re: 50mb upload increase finally

So are they going to actually implement this any time soon, or are they just tormenting us (further), at the risk of receiving another jiffy-bag of dog doo-dah through the post?

.... and should we expect the price hike before or after the upstream upgrades?

Re: 50mb upload increase finally

Does anyone know if 1.75 upload is the new upload speed for 50MB or is this testing for 100MB -I guess the 50MB modem can also support 100MB ?

Re: 50mb upload increase finally

So, does this mean the speed I am getting at the moment will only be running for so long?

Re: 50mb upload increase finally

As far as I know 1.75mb has always been the upload speed i've had on thr 50mb service, so would assume this is the nowmal upload speed, except for the trial duration where it was 5mb.
