22 Answers
On January 13th, I received the email below, from Virgin.
/// TO SAY A BIG THANKS FOR BEING WITH US, I, RICHARD BRANSON, WILL BE MORE THAN DOUBLING YOUR BROADBAND SPEED ///
/// But the big news is that over the next 18 months we will be upgrading more than 4 million customers. This includes you. So, soon you'll be enjoying faster broadband speeds. ///
But on January 14th, I received this email, from Virgin.
/// Oops! That last email, 100Mb Broadband Annoucement, was sent in error. ///
/// Please ignore this, and rest assured current Virgin Media Cable Broadband customers will be receiving some good news about your broadband in the next 2 weeks. We apologise for any inconvenience caused ///
Does anyone know what is going off?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.VM are rolling out the doubling of broadband speeds to all of their broadband customers throughout 2012 on a region-by-region basis. The top tier (preferential) customers were meant to be given the good news first however us plebs got the email in error. I am unlikely to see my upgrade until October.

Not quite true.
It is only CABLE customers, not ADSL customers.
Also 100mbps dont get double, they stay the same but get a price reduction.
So as I am currently on 30mbps mine will go up to 60mbps in about March according to their web site.
