Default Virgin Media annoy customers yet again.



You'd think they don't want customers at this rate....



Well you can guys doubt me all you like, i had mentioned STM would be
rolled out which no one believed, and i think those of you who believe
alex right now need to remember the fact he did nothing but deny they
were going to implement STM and then DENIED it when trials were being
run, it was ONLY when he was pressured by huge amounts of users that he
admitted it was in place.

He has been known to lie on endless occasions, hardly a trustworthy
person and a fair amount of people on here know that.

Edit : Also, yes he does have the power to delete messages, and does so
on a regular basis if it is something he doesnt like.

And with his reply he is neither admitting nor denying the STM upload
trial, though if you read between the lines you know its true, his
response was exactly like this when STM trials were in place, this is
where he plays his little game

Cable - Upload Traffic Shaping to be in full effect by January 2008
(Confirmed)

Some of the Virgin Media employees had a meeting yesterday regarding
some new bundles coming to VM soon (Some which I cant discuss) however
one thing I can discuss is Upload STM.

Virgin Media are now implementing traffic shaping (STM) on both UPLOAD
and DOWNLOAD although it is currently being trailed in Preston it has
been confirmed that by January 2008 it will be rolled out to the whole
country.

You could discuss what went on at a Vigrin Media meeting IF you knew - which
you don't or you would tell everyone. There is no point seeing wht happens,
coming back and trying to claim you told us all months ago.

You are a bit behind the times, it was tried in Liverpool first around
11months ago. There is a problem when people use encryption and
non-standard ports. That is why Virgin is rolling it out as and when they
can afford to.

I wouldn't believe everything you see on forums. There is no way of
verifying stories.
