I would'nt be in a rush to migrate over to Virgin, the service has become hit and miss, frequent lag and slow speeds...if your near to an exchange you might be fine..

That's not good to hear. My eldest has virgin and has great speed, much better than sky. I'll have to ask him about the reliability.
My daughter live in Bath as a student. I pay for her BB via BT. What a crok of crap that was getting it sorted.

We need someone doing BB with out shareholders breathing down on the company.
