Sure did we agree on the admin charge and I added the fuel that BT already charge it
;) :clap: :clap:

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

Just when everyone thought NTL was asleep, the giant awakes!!!!

One month ago I was on 512KB ADSL with no prospect of faster speeds (BT+rusty line),
today I am at 1.5MB (NTL) with the prospect of 3MB, did I make the right move or did I make the right move?
Where do I send the £25, I want to be at the front of the queue :walk:

:erm: Is it too early to start a new thread asking for even faster speeds? :Yikes:
A free upgrade to 6MB sounds about right to keep us happy throughout 2005 don't you think? ....Q2 would be good timing :D

Broadband Britain = NTL :hugs:

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

yer 12mbps by Q4 next year :D

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

so maybe i missed it all but do i have to swap to this or can i stay on the 1gig cap thing that they dont do anything about?

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

what the hell am i reading here! NTL have increased speeds i applaud them for doing that, im not happy with the cap, slightly unhappy with the £25 admin fee to upgrade to the faster tiers but all in all its an excellent move, when will people get off their anti NTL horses and admit NTL have come up trumps for once, lets sit back and wait for the speeds to come through first quarter 2005, its like people want to intentionally moan at NTL and nit pick on the tiniest of things :rant:

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

I'll be paying the £25 fee, as I'm sick of 300K. I want 1MB!!! :p:

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

Even with the 5 gig cap?

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

If that's per month then I don't think I'll ever use that up.

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

That timing makes sense :D

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

Yes I admit I haven't read all the posts here and elsewhere

BUT

What are the upload speeds going to be? I want to be able to send big emails quickly or work from home by VPN, download isn't everything, and all ADSL seem to start at 256kb up don't they?

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

256k up?

not that isnt right ... you can only get 256k upload except on llu service e.g. bulldog in central london.

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

nope wrong- Buldog offer higher uploads of 384kbps

as far as i know- infact, everyone i know on adsl, is on 256kb upload

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

If you live in London that is, and the quoted speed is up to 400k up and up to 4MB down, which leaves the majority of the UK with 256k up, to be fair 3mb/256 Still is a tasty prospect.

EDIT : I Live 40 Miles from London and Bulldog can only Offer 256k upload, and 2MB down.

Re: [Now Official] More ntl speed changes
 

Those complaining about the £25 fee should spare a thought for those of us who bought our cable modems back in the early days when we didnt have a choice.

We paid about £150 for the modem and as such we have always got a £5 discount since rental became an option. However if you try and upgrade from 750k to 1.5mb they refuse to take the discount into effect and it will almost certainly be the same here.

This mean not onlt do we have to pay £25 to upgrade but we either have to stick outselves with a stupid 5GB limit or pay £5 a month more than we do now for something we dont need.

Again just another example of long term customers who helped them support the product in the early days being screwed over in favour of new customers



As for if these will be proper caps I have to say the fact they are mentioned in the press releases would suggest that they will be. Why make it such an issue otherwise. Only other reason could be as others have said they want to scare people into not downgrading in which case they wont clarify their position and will leave us to all take a risk
