Surely you don't think Virgin over throttle lower speeds to get people to upgrade?
The days of me paying £30+ just for an internet connection are history.....

I know that, me and Andrew have participated in loads of threads together and I have not once criticised his spelling, sentence structure or english as a whole. Tbh his post made me laugh and I posted what I did to prove to everyone else that although it can be frustrating, we can all still read it no problemo.

never took one bit of offence to it because i know of the study and i have tried in the past to show people but for some reaosn some people think taht spelling adn grammer are so important that they get offence with people who are not good at it, i dnt jsut mean dsylexic people i mean people witha small vocalbally, people who have had strokes etc and no longer have speech or sound reconisation i mean pronounce a sound like K
the only place i believe english spelling adn grammer should be important is ENGLISH EXAM OF SOME DEGREEE nothing else should matter

Your not maying for a 10mb connection, your paying for a level of service and L is not appropriate for heavy downloaded

I used to think of it as paying for a 2.5mb unlimited connection that's burstable up to 10mb for half an hour a day...
