Re: Virgin Media to Double Broadband Speed

Why is it that a huge company like VM seems unable to correctly send emails?

It might have something to do with their entire IT system being a good 5 years out of date.
They only switched to IE8 a few months ago (From IE6!). Everyone's still on Windows XP / Server 2003 machines.

However when telford cable posted his last night we all automatically assumed "rightly if you know who and what he is" that it was another of his photoshopped fakes. Obviously for the very first time he has posted a fact

I now need to go and have a little lie down.

They don't do 5Mb at the moment would have been a better comment.

Yes, All 20Mb customers had to do was pay £30 for the superhub/activation to get 30Mb for the same monthly cost. I have to say it has been worth it!

Re: Virgin Media to Double Broadband Speed

Supposedly, I get the speed upgrade between April-July... bring it on! In the heck area.

I also got the e-mail saying I was on the fastest package (lolwut) and I would be upgraded to 120Mb soon. But I'm on 30Mb, so go figure.
