It seems any network irregularity can be explained away simply as the server is ignoring packets....how handy for the disbelievers.
Bottom line is the network is borked, or being borked for a goodly part of the time.
It's not quite bad enough for me to switch but I know it could be so much more better.

I think you are missing a point, many people are posting traceroutes showing packets dropped at the VM tele-ic hops & quoting that as 'evidence' for their poor performance, when the final hops clearly show an optimal connection.
The fact is that the tele-ic routers are designed to drop non critical packets - if the final hop is ok in a traceroute, then the connection is ok, as I understand it???
Unfortunately many traces seem to be to the BBC, so the question of VM's peering with the US doesn't arise - and I suspect this may be more relevant to the problems some people are experiencing???
