Virgin Media... or Sky?

[N!ck]

DOCSIS 3.0 has fixed that problem.



I can, do and will

I agree that you can and will. I don't agree on that you do on the basis of you implying that you don't have it until Friday.

I also believe that the can and do will generally tend to occur in the early hours of the morning once they get it properly up and running, but please show me otherwise when you manage to "do".

Sure thing, I'll download a file at 5pm ish tomorrow during peak times, i get 20mb all the time, and with 50, i'll be in a seperate 50 only exchange so that'll be cool.

Virgin Media's Customer Service is shockingly bad. One of their pledges when they took over NTL was to improve it. By my recent experiences with them, it is clear that they have failed. It took one month, approximately 25 calls and about 25 arguements with them to get them to come and install it, not even fix the service, just to install the thing. In the end, we got lucky because a technition was in our street, and we managed to talk his manager's number out of him. Had this not happened, I probably still wouldn't have a Virgin service.

I don't get why people ***** about services, 99% of the time theres an alternative service available in the area, SO CHANGE IT DON'T CRY ABOUT IT fgs.

That's not an exchange... An exchange is a building filled with loads of servers etc, yes it will go to that green box, but it will be going to different server in the exchange for 50MB customers.

50mb servers have their own exchange.

If you were referring to my post (Not sure), you enter into a contract, so unless you want to fork out even more money moving elsewhere, its unadvisable. In our case the BT line was damaged, which was why we moved.
