    I'd go for that.

    I pay £29 for their 20MB package at the moment. Had it for a few years though.

    Is that all it is?! I thought it was alot more than that :s. Well its a cheap monthly rate for what it is and a short contract so i persume theres going to be some drawbacks, you got a link to the package your looking at?

    do they personally install a 50meg capable cable from your house to the exchange? if not you will be paying for 50 meg and probably still only get 4/5 meg max.

    I pay for the 10meg sky connection but only receive at about 3meg as that is all my line can take. works fine though and i have 3 pc's couple of laptops, xbox360 and ps3 all connected via wireless.

    Virgin 50MB is fibre optic cable so it's only available in cabled areas. Yes it is a specific cable.
