Re: We all want to know!
 

wots every1 sayin its going unlimeted in jan 2006 for ?

Re: We all want to know!
 

2mb is unlimited now however the 10mb with 30gb cap option is not available yet, if you want 10mb you have to upgrade to the £37.99 tariff ( like i've done )

THe 10mb rollout on other tariffs are not available yet.

Re: We all want to know!
 

dam wa bowt me :(?

Re: We all want to know!
 

Upgrade or wait..

Re: We all want to know!
 

Sorry I am not sure what happens to the 1mb tariff people.

Re: We all want to know!
 

So it will be unlimeted soon?

Re: We all want to know!
 

No idea. Read my above posts.!

Re: We all want to know!
 

No im asking everyone not just you lol

Re: We all want to know!
 

Excuse me but when did it say that only 2MB would be unlimited? As far as I can see it says on the CF home page that it applies to 1MB and 2MB.:confused:

Re: We all want to know!
 

I thought Ntl sent emails out to people saying the 1Mb and 2Mb tarrifs were to be unlimited from Jan 06

Re: We all want to know!
 

Thats what i thought!

Re: We all want to know!
 

Well I seldom get emails from ntl..except to advertise stuff I can't have because I'm in the wrong area or I'm already a 'valued customer'.I think the last email they sent me was 6 months ago.Wasn't anything important.I never even got told by them that I could upgrade from 300k to 1MB either by email or snail mail.

Frankly if it wasn't for CF I'd know nothing about NTL. :erm:

Re: We all want to know!
 

Well i got an email sayin crap like thanks for choosing the uk's no 1 isp and stuff bowt free broadband plus for 2mb and 10mb thats it!Well ill just phone em and find out whats what!

Re: We all want to know!
 

A copy of the link in the email that 300k users got.

Re: We all want to know!
 

On my latest bill it states 1 & 2mb will have unlimited access jan 2006

Re: We all want to know!
 

Right so that means that i will go unlimeted this month. If changes have been made already than why does it still say theres a mothly limit on ntl's website?

Re: We all want to know!
 

I'd just go by what the email says..(from january 06) and download what you want without worrying about any cap.

Re: We all want to know!
 

Could it be that the workers at NTL are off today and therefor there are no web designers in work at NTL. They have familys they spend NEW YEAR with just like you :)

Re: We all want to know!
 

Bear in mind that if NTL say January (or any month), they don't necessarily mean the first day.

Re: We all want to know!
 

Then I would imagine that they need to state that, as otherwise they are open to misinterpetation.

Re: We all want to know!
 

Not really. If you state you are going to give something in January, whether you give it on the 1st, or 31st, you are still giving what you promised.

In my experience, if told they are going to get something in a certain month (rather than BY a certain month), then most people will assume that it can be any day in that month.

Re: We all want to know!
 

I'm very interested to find out the date when 1Mbps and 2Mbps services become unlimited (subject to the FUP ;)). Trust NTL to be communicative. ;)

Re: We all want to know!
 

I never ever got that notice at all.Not with any bill either 'cos I carefully checked.Seems they can bill me and can find me to send me promotional literature for stuff I'm not interested in or have already but they never ever seem to inform me of stuff I really want to know about.I've had so much about Talk Unlimited which I'm not interested in because I already have telephone bills under a tenner per month.

Re: We all want to know!
 

You are talking about broadband plus.

Re: We all want to know!
 

AFAIK the only certain information on the upgrades is that all ntl cable 1Mb and 2Mb accounts will be upgraded to 10Mb by the end of 2006, and all 3Mb customers should be on 10Mb now (don't know if they actually are). All 10Mb accounts will be capped.

So the only way to upgrade to 10Mb ATM (unless you're lucky - don't know if anyone on the 1 & 2 mb tiers has been upgraded yet?) is to subscribe to the £37.99 tier.

If you go to the speed upgrade page, you can check what speed you can be upgraded to: if the result is 10Mb, then you can get 10Mb, if the result is bund03, you're still limited to the 3Mb service. As I said, though, ntl were reckoning that everyone on the 3Mb tier should be upgraded by the end of 2005.

Re: We all want to know!
 

aaahhh 2006! to long lol!

My dad has said he has had an email from ntl saying it will cost an extra £50 to upgrade to 10mB??

Re: We all want to know!
 

Users that don't have a compatible STB or SACM have been told to pay £50 if they want to be able to use 10Mb at its full potential.

Ntl say the Samsung STBs can only manage around 5Mb.

Re: We all want to know!
 

well ive got the ntl 200 modem which is compatible rite??

Re: We all want to know!
 

Yes i think thats fine.

You could always upgrade now to 10Mb if you can get Dad to pay £34.99 a month. You can always downgrade later on.

Re: We all want to know!
 

Ah so you can downgrade.Never knew that,i might be able to persuade him and my mum now hehehe thanx SnoopZ

Re: We all want to know!
 

You can only downgrade after 30 days though.

Re: We all want to know!
 

Kk,u got any tactics to persuade my dad?.Your an adult so please help me.lol

Re: We all want to know!
 

45secs for an mp3 album and 1 hr for a 5gig dvd, so more time for your homework and less electricity. ;)

Re: We all want to know!
 

All the porno you can HANDle. Isn't that enough? ;)

Re: We all want to know!
 

Oh yer i forgot about that! So tell dad you don't need to read his mags anymore ;)

Re: We all want to know!

---------- Post added at 21:54 ---------- Previous post was at 21:53 ----------

Will try that SnoopZ ;) And ill say that the price will most probably drop anyways lol,will it?

Re: We all want to know!
 

I would assume its unlimited from this weekend but like many others I have had no news on it with my bill or an email and would like to see something on ntl's site confirming it.

Re: We all want to know!
 

The price has only just dropped from £37.99 to £34.99 this month. So I can't see it dropping again anytime soon.

Re: We all want to know!
 

It's unlimited - I had the email, but, yes, the website hasn't been updated yet. It is only the first working day of the year, give people time to get over the hangover.

On another note: Who is the girl on the website?
[img]Download Failed (1)[/img]

Re: We all want to know!

Re: We all want to know!
