I'm only about a mile from there too :-)

Don't suppose either of you have got the 20mb yet either?

Seems weird to be upgraded last, as i was on the trial a year ago i thought this area would have been done pretty early.

Hi greatcapp

No 20meg as yet..

The same thought crossed my mind?

As it happens, with all the reported problems I look forward to the upgrade with some forebodings. At the moment I am happy with my 10meg. I have no need of a faster connection. Would sooner an upload upgrade or a price reduction to be honest.

I use a seperate 'Be' connection for my upload (when i need to upload faster). I get 1.3mb upload from them, but because of the distance from the exchange, I only get about 7-8mb download.

Looking at the Service Status (http://status-cable.virginmedia.com/vmstatus/summary.do) page, there seems to be a lot of broken connections the other night. Mine died on Sunday night (NG17 area) at just after 11pm.
