Virgin Media Business Broadband 10

[glennda]

Just been to look at a site for a client and got a couple of questions around this and want to try and avoid talking to Virgin Media directly if I don't have to

 

They have the package mentioned above, From paperwork they have they get 10MB cable line for £40pm.

 

Does anybody know the contention ratio's of Virgins business cable lines?

 

Does it mean they will get steady 10mb or is it like ADSL?

 

I've never used a cable line so not really sure and the Virgin website is next to useless!

My homeline is a rock solid 30Mb - so you'd hope the business version is at least as good. They do do traffic throttling though - so you'd need it in writing that they will not apply this on your proposed line.

That is what I don't know. I will have to try and call them to get information out of them. The line is already in place and has been running for a while.

virgin are pretty good at providing the speeds they advertise from my experience as a cable based customer, not sure about the contentions and ADSL offerings though.
