Virgin Media is to due to upgrade the connection speed of customers on its 'L'
package from 4Mbps up to 10Mbps from the beginning next month. The free
upgrade should be complete by the end of this summer and will be rolled out on a
region-by-region basis for all of Virgins cabled areas, which it took over the
merger with ntl:Telewest.
"Virgin Media's cable network gives us a natural superiority over
other broadband services and we're delighted to reward our customers
with this free upgrade."
"We've barely scratched the surface of what's possible with our cable
network, and we will continue to look for new ways to satisfy the
growing demand for even faster broadband in the UK. We're proud to be
leading the country's superfast broadband revolution," |
| Neil Berkett acting chief executive Virgin Media |
The company has also been trialling speeds of 50Mbps and these should be
available to nine million homes by the end of this year, although prices haven't
been announced as yet.
