It's a shame

It's a shame

It's a shame as I can cope with the 2meg pipe but need much more than a 2gb limit.

Will probably pay the extra £7.50, or should I say £7.50, as I only pay for the TV at the mo.

This was announced a few weeks ago so not really new news and is still a pretty good deal.

I have their complete package. The UP to 20Mb is only about 6.8 on my clock most of the time and never peaked above 9. The exchange and box is about 50 yards from the house.
Me thinks it is choked here!

I have the same package and have never seen more than a meg, in fact since Christmas I have been at around half a meg. I honestly think that if Sky faxed packets of data to my house it would be faster DT_Xtremez_42:

They'll also be binning the £10 monthly HD charge too. Or so the engineer that fitted mine this week told me.

And seeing as Virgin are broadcasting their HD at no extra cost now, it sounds about right.
