Re: Virgin Media should have matched BT FTTC

That of course beats the BT FTTC speeds by miles!
Except that

a) VM are increasing their prices
b) BT are giving 20mb customers (avg. speed 6mb) users up to 80mb (avg speed probably >60mb) for free, a much bigger increase.
c) VM's upload speeds still pale in comparison - remember some areas are stuck on 1.75mb or 5mb upload, even with >100mb download
d) VM's upgrades won't be finishing for a year and a half
e) VM are 3 upgrade cycles behind in some areas (10:1 upload not complete, 100mb rollout not complete, double speed not even started)
f) After the next - imminent - set of upgrades finish, VM will be charging £25 for 50/5* or 100/5 (*not necessarily 50/5 all the time) while BT are expected to be charging £25 for 80/20

* Unless you use it too much, then 50/1.75 or if you use it way too much, 0/0.

Telford is due to get FTTC on 01/06/2012, so only a few months to tolerate this guy.
