Virgin has incredibly limiting bandwidth usage rules unless you buy their most expensive internet package. Their "peak" hours cover most of the day: 10am to 3pm ~ 4pm to 9pm. If you go over 5 gigs down during one of those time blocks you suffer a 75% hit on your speeds for 5 hours, even if you pass that threshold at 8:59pm.
I'm in the UK for a year only (grad school), and my roommates didn't want to go for the top service pack, the bill is in my roommates name and Virgin's call center service is so poor and understaffed that I don't blame them for not wishing to cancel.
Sad to say I can't wait to come back to Comcast in the US, Suck it Virgin!
- Hm, I got my numbers wrong it's 3 gigs in the morning block and 1.5 gigs in the night block., for the 10mb package.bjm
