Virgin Media (NTL) - BroadBand

Guys,
Im just wondering if anyone here on Virgin Media has realised
an extreme drop in download speed?

Me and a mate are receiving extremely rubbish download speed
(Around 100-150KB/ Sec)

If it's just us then I will need some help as of how to get the speed back.
(I've restarted my box and all those things)

Cheers in advance

I'm on virgin media, never have/had any problem with them, been with them for years since they were BlueYonder, also on 20mb always download at around 2-2.5mbp/s i can't see any problems with them. could depend on what part of the country your from though.

I've not really been having that bad of a drop in speed. Around my area we've been experiencing TX Load issues on our UBR though. (Few months now). They said it probably won't even be sorted until we get 50MB around our area.

TX Load issue/overloaded UBR is mostly in the evenings and normally on the weekend. (Get packet loss etc which makes playing games on the weekend a pain in the arse)
