Not entirely!

There IS a significant problem with (for example) Virgin Media offering
"unlimited" broadband, when it is seriously limited by their draconian
policies.  There is also a problem with Virgin offering "20 Mb/s" when
with STM and contention issues, most users seldom see anything above 2
Mb/s.

Other "broadband" providers are also guilty of some VERY suspect
advertising. 

I have yet to see a proper broadband service in this backward country!
