I didn't know that, I've just switched from Virgin to Youfibre, cut my bill in half (now £25/month) and doubled the speed, gave me £75 as used someones referal code, and then they are paying my £260 final Virgin bill as I was still in contract until November. I've never had an issue with Virgin apart from shit customer service so fact youfibre is owned by them doesn't bother me too much

Not in our area just looked they have some mad speeds
 
I get 500mb volted to 1gb for £18.99 per month on virgin. Other half has a 02 monthly sim for £10 with world wide roaming so we get volted.

I was volted as well, 350mb volted to 500mb, was paying 3x what you are paying.

There were some deals doing the rounds in march/april time that were very good value. I think the standard rate was 500mb @ £22.99 and i was going to take that deal but for just one day the price dropped £4 per month. I jumped at the chance and took the deal that day but delay my install by 3 weeks whilst my plusnet contract run out.
 
Vm replaced today, both are still live for a fortnight, did a few speedtests on both:

GRAIN, above costs £17~ month over 24 months, 250 down and up
 
Yeah I keep checking, saw that deal too.
Suppose will have to cancel and sign up again, thought they would get in touch on the app with a deal and suppose to let us know it's ending soon. Not going back to VM.
 
My area is not in the fast lane yet, maximum 70 mpbs but I have heard on other forums that Youfibre Routers are shite, and subscribers are all looking at 3rd party ones

I've been with them for a few months now, not had an issue with their router.

I'm on the 900Mbps package for £25/month. which is twice the speed I got with VIrgin for less than half the price. Youfibre even paid off my VIrgin contract which had a few months left on it, and paid me £75 cash back as I used a referal code. Considering they're owned by Virgin I did giggle to myself that they are paying so much to take me from VIrgin.
