I am in Manchester.
Customer service do not have the dates and what you have been told is not correct and i have not heard of any trial for 10 meg running at the moment. That is all i am going to say on the subject.

Have NTL given a date for the speed increase yet? appart from the end of the year??? and does anybody know what the upload speed will be on 10mb yet? thanks

10Mbps
 
I seem to be getting 8-10Mbps down & 240-480kbps up. The upstream seems to be varying a lot more than before, though.

So, is this the infamous upgrade?

I highly doubt that it is the upgrade, I sometimes manage get a boost but then it goes back to normal.

I'm not sure it proves anything, however ...
