Re: Virgin Media Broadband

You are experiencing what every downloader gets hit with - a fair use policy. All ISP's are applying such policies because the vast majority of their customers have been complaining about the minority who are causing bottlenecks in the system with excessive downloads. As 80% of all downloads are actually by people sharing stolen music and films, I for one am more than happy that my ISP (Virgin) are penalising those few who are causing my own speeds to be affected. Clearly if you are paying the going rate for your own downloads you have a right to expect a good service but VM will only usually start applying their fair-use policy after excessive downloads. Does that apply to you?




lol what a dreamer, you obviously don't know how to use your connection to its potential then. i see you are happy that virgin media are penalising people who download over 5 gig a week on their " unlimited " broadband, their fair usage isn't fair usage. should be called virgin media's how to rob people policy. everyone on virgin media pays good money for their services and not many receive that. virgin media ADSL will never supply a good connection. average broadband companies in the country are nowhere near their claimed speed, because the government won't upgrade the services. France have now just got 100mb connection and U.K is struggling to get over 20mb. lol so much for this country.
