Down to 400k of an evening where I live. Thanks to blanket selling to students with no care for how it cripples the service. It amuses me, as I mentioned in another thread, how people can claim if VM give discounts they have less cash to invest. I mean come on. Investment is an alien concept to VM.

They sell a 20meg service and expect me to swallow that 400k ish is "up to 20meg". Forgetting of course that the 400k is costing me way more than other providers would charge.

I thought things were getting better since the upgrade, but it seems I was actually right about it going to pot once the students near me were back after the summer holidays. My cousin is on SKY and very happy with it.

Before the VM apologists say SKY speed may fluctuate or not be up to 20meg. Well, shock horror, it can be had for what £10 per month? I know which is better value in my eyes thanks very much.
