Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Trust me i know nothing of this. But there again its the people at the coal face who are normally the last to know. It will make me consider my broadband supplier even if i work for them. I cannot afford to have my upload drop as i play games as well.

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Well I wish to know and soon.

I am not impressed and I may even write a formal complaint about this to them giving a true piece of my mind, and make sure that a stink its kicked up on about every single forum I can find about this.

NTL's network barely can handle 10mb users, and now they want to add 20mb users and then sod the 10mb £35 a month paying users downgrade those SO YOU CAN LINE YOUR WALLETS WITH WHAT?? £40-50 A MONTH USERS ON 20MB who will get no where near those speeds and give them our uploads speeds so you can then get even more profits for 2007, you idiotic ****ing company NTL you have just proven if you do this that your customers are nothing to you, that you do not care about the quality of service, and care they get and that the only thing which matters to you is how much profit your making per month.

download causes problems especially if the bottom tier was 10mbit with unlimited bandwidth. When its said its hard to provide upload bandwidth I meant rather its harder to provide 1meg upload then 1 meg download.

Also bear in mind although there seems to be a moderate amount of users on here demanding high upload speeds the generic web surfer isnt interested in upload speeds and the headline spec of the product is download speed.

to add I would be ****ed of also tho if I was paying 35 notes and had a downgrade of upload speed, but then again I would be one of the few probably upgrading to the £50 tier if it turned up.

Looks like it's 384, down from 400 :(

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Why you don't get the speeds and then your showing NTL they can gouge you for the speed and you will pay.

You will be lucky to be any quicker than the 10mb users.

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Hold up.

IF they do this, then whats to stop us all saving money and going with 4mb?

I know I may until I can sort out a new ISP.

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Wouldn't work for me as i don't want to reduce my download speed.

What upload speeds do other ISP's have that are in your area?

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

I'll have to find out but iI know someone with BT Broadband who gets 8mb down with 400 up for £24.99. Or a very close amount.

Either way I plan on speaking to him soon likely in the morning and having a word, if this is final from NTL and fact and not a typo I plan on changing my provider, it's overpriced now but a drop in service to facilitate a upgraded speed to another tariff of which can only serve a as a financial appeal over any hope of service quality is just beyond contempt.

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

I will be making some calls on Monday to try and get to the bottom of this .

Re: Ntl to reduce upload speed on 10mb
 

Ask them when will i get my free upgrade to 20mbit as well please! That way maybe i'll be able to keep this upload speed. ;)
