Wise move

I have not heard anything about this so will wait and see.

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

20% pay cuts - what? where? how? who says?

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

Rumours rumours all rumours,,,,,

When it happens then I will believe it.

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

I agree, rumours tend to get exaggerated.
like: http://www.cableforum.co.uk/article/...-service-price

and I even heard a rumour that my 1mb set top box would be upgraded to 1.5mb :)

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

That was not exaggerated though - the story didn't tell you prices were coming down - it said at the time the 1MB price was under review - what exactly could be exaggerated about that I ask? :)

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

Er, would it be too chirlish to suggest they actually implement the speed increase they've been promising for the last 4 months before talking about yet more? :rolleyes:

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

That's absolutely right, plans can change. It may not eventually happen exactly like this, or be delayed due to other things like VOD, but as I said, if more information is available then I will pass it on.

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

Knowing what a large amount of NTL customers are like wouldn't this news give them fuel to throw their toys out of the pram if it fails. They are not a patient lot and well speed is like a red rag to a bull with the majority..

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

incase it had escaped your notice in some areas binmen have been striking because of the threat of a 5400 annual cut of there 20K or so income :(

the housing market is slumping again and this time like every time, as the increaes have of course been larger so the falls will be harder. The economy is not as strong as the government would like to have you believe.

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

In that case :Yikes:

were all doomed run for the hills:Sprint:

:LOL:

Sorry could not help that :)

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

Lol @ Bill C nope were not all doomed all that will happen is what allways happens, the government will end up replaced witha new electorate that will boost things fill us with a load more lies till next time ;)

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

*resigns before being made redundant as no-one will be able to afford to use the internet anymore.

Ah actually to a lot of people the internet is as or more valuable than TV or telephone. Maybe I'll rethink. :)

*forgets about resigning.

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

:rofl: would have repped you for the laugh but have to share them around.

Glad you changed your mind about resigning

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

You only go to work because you can then afford the internet ?
unfortuantly for many they are working far too many hours to be able to really consider the internet and some could still barely afford it anyway. theres still a large chunk of the population on well below the average wage that either cant afford the luxury or have the time left for it.

Many staff are still over demanded by their employers but cant do nothing about it for fear of losing what little they have

Re: More ntl speed changes
 

Many people are also working long hours because the housing market is so over inflated.

Anyway, 18 quid a month isn't that much. Still a luxury though, but so were mobile phones ten years ago (and they're often way over 18 quid a month).
