Most broadband users are not getting the internet speeds they are paying for, according to Internet watchdog Ofcom. Its survey found that nearly one in five broadband customers on an eight Megabit per second (Mbps) connection actually receive less than 2Mbps. Newsbeat presenter Tulip Mazumdar asked Virgin's Asam Ahmad why speeds were slower than promised.
