Virgin Broadband, not so hot.

I thought when I moved into my new property and opted to have Virgin cable 32 Mb installed that I would be flying. It has not really lived up to expectation. It appears to me that the system is overloaded and that at peak periods it really does not work at all, ie; this morning , OK Andy was playing in his final but I would have expected to get some sort of service.
I have previously phoned Rich's command centre and complained and they seem to shake a few things and it works for a while but after a month or so it drifts away and connectivity gets more and more problematic. Methinks time for another call to 150 but there are many times I wish I was still with my previous 8 Mb BT line.
