What do you mean?

VM had been told? Told by who..

It is VM that are rolling out 50Mb/s.. It will be 'Hubsite by Hubsite'. i.e. Dudley first, followed by Hubsite X, followed by Hubsite Y etc etc.

Are you mad?:D

Well, that isn't the way they rolled out 20meg (or 10 meg before that).

They go area by area (or hubsite by hubsite as noted above). VM's area boundries don't necessarily fit in nicely with towns or cities. Generally, one area will cover several towns, and may include cities. Equally, large towns or cities may be served by more than one area.

The moral of the story is don't believe anything you hear from the call centers!

You would prob get a more accurate answer from "The bloke in the pub"

The call centres don't get the information any quicker than the public do (to try and stop leaks)

Anyone who says otherwise is telling porkies
