A further update...
No speed increase two days later, I was told by advanced technical support I definitely needed a new superhub and he ordered one for me.
The joys of Virgin media.

I'm in the Teesside area and I'm now on 24 DS 2 US. The postcode checker states the end of February for the free speed upgrade. Can't check if the area will get it though as I upgraded from 152Mb to 200Mb early January.

16 here still too, but AFAIK there's never been any utilization issues so probably won't get 20 for a while now.

Re: Virgin Media 70, 150 & 200 Mb Upgrades
Are 50mb customers due a free speed boost/ upgrade to 100mb without having to take out a new contract if they are in a 100mb/200mb/ 300mb capable area.
Basically we have a lightning deal £20 weekend calls, medium TV and 50mb broadband (December 2016).
Speed Boost Page says that our speed boost has already been activated but hasn't.
Thanks.

Every time I log into My Virgin media I get a message telling me my "speed boost" to 50mb is complete - this has been showing since I downgraded from 100mb last year.
