Broadband speed on the Virgin Media XL package is to double to 20Mbps along with a slight price increase.

Ernie Cormier, chief commercial officer of Virgin Media, said in an official statement:

“We want to make entertainment and communications the simple and exciting world it should be, but our technology also means we can offer an ultra-fast broadband service that our competitors can’t match.

“For internet savvy customers who want the best broadband money can buy, our XL service is perfect for speedy downloading and uploading – whether it’s music, videos, podcasts or blogs.”
