• Anyone else had their speed bumped-up by Virgin? Just got an email announcing I needed to reboot my router: gone from M200 to M250 free of charge.

    Renewal in the summer was particularly generous (after an unprecedented amount of fuckery).

    I suppose the competition is improving...

  • I had the email - haven't seen any noticeable benefits (after restarting router) and still can't wait to go somewhere else. Price has risen from 45 when I moved in to 65 within 4 years. It's slower and more expensive with the same provider than my last house (350 speed for 35p/m).

    However, I can't be bothered to wait on hold for 6 hours to tell them I'm leaving.

  • 6 hours

    I was on hold for something ridiculous like 3 hours every evening for nearly a week, this renewal.

    I was adamant I'd switch, but when the inevitable offer came it was too good to refuse. It's only once every 18 months, so greed and lethargy trump principles.
