again, the fact that this so called offering is 'free' for current customers and at present false advertising for new customers
(my friend re-joined NTL on the basis of the advertised 4mbit for instance, so its relevent for him, and many others too), why is it that it seems every single advert, system and employee are stating the company line of 4mbit to all that will listen and hence they have been upgraded as it were, but not one single confirmed upgraded modem in all of the NTL/Tw network so far.

Billing systems may have been upgraded in readiness for the rollout but the config files look like they aint gone yet. Taking that most work happens on early hours of Tuesday and Thursday, you won't get it today

Im working on one of the biggest computer roll-outs in Scotland (not NTL related) And we have a clear plan of action as i guess they must have.

Not once did she tell me it had yet to be implemented in my area and may well be another few weeks. And I'm sorry, but she should have done and no one could convince me otherwise. That's why I got all stroppy to begin with.
