I am on 50 meg and have thought seriously of getting 100meg but as the 50meg is more than adequate i see no reason to at the moment.
You also have to consider that with 50mb you get 24 hour technical support. For some reason when you pay more and get 100mb, you only get support 8am until 12 midnight.

I'm actually right on the verge of leaving VM completely, if they don't sort my current problems out.

Exactly....I think it's a bit of a slap in the face. And it isn't going to do anything to keep me with VM, if they don't sort my current problem.

Sorry to disappoint but 100Mb customers are not being upgraded to 200Mb, they're having their price dropped to the 50Mb price of £25/month if taken with a phone line.

100Mb will probably be subject to STM with this upgrade / price reduction, details to be confirmed.
Is this a sneaky way of cutting technical support costs, as 100mb don't get 24 hour support, when 50mb do??

In the past you have had to contact VM to get any price reductions, They don't just do it automatically.
