Re: Why i would never have DSL

Another swipe at ADSL from a VM customer. God this gets boring dont it. I have Be Unlimited. It does me. My line is about 1km away and I have no need for 50mb. I dont need to gloat about my speeds to feel good about myself.

This does me

Re: Why i would never have DSL

I have to admit, I am on Be's up to 24 meg service. I get between 18-20 meg night or day. No throttling.

I am not anti-vm. If VM offered me better value for money than Be, I'd leave Be like a shot..

Re: Why i would never have DSL

Of course you should hear Sirius's complaints when other stuff he's got running, possibly because of some of the toys he's had given to him, manage to ruin his "perfect" connection whilst he's gaming
