Good news...for you
I just canceled my Virginmedia services due to price increase. They were good to be fair and offered some good deals like 10Mb standalone for under £15.
But they did tell a few porkies EG- Your ADSL line will only hit 2Mb although it currently running between 11-14Mb. Also told me I down load 150Gb a month...I think I would notice 5Gb a day.
But overall the guy was pretty cool he tried his best but unless they con offer 11Mb+ unlimited free for 12 months(the deal sky have gave me) it was never going to workout for him.
So there ya go, I feel we left on good terms and I can always return in 18months when my area gets the speed lift.
A drop from 50Mb to 11Mb is something I'm going to have to suck up but I already use it as my dedicated gaming line so I know it reliable. But I'm saving £37.50 a month or £450 a year.
Look out for New to Sky coming soon lol.

I think you need to change you username to New to SKY.

Not likely!
In fact I might even be here more simply as a result of my broadband working better

Re: Good news...for you
Tell you the truth I'm waiting to see how VM conduct themselves with my upgrade due in April-July. If things don't improve all round I'm off. Infinity speeds on offer are pretty high, the exchange isn't far away, the local cab is down the road.

Dude I know you state you have dyslexia but I think you will find typing slower and a single proof read before posting your replies will make a massive difference.
Your spelling is not actually that bad you place letters and spaces incorrectly I suspect mostly due to typing to fast. I think type slower and proof read through once you'll see a 70% improvement in your posts.
