How many will consider changing levels now?
I was just unterested to see how many members now feel the lower package is fast enough for them?
If you are on 1MB soon to be 1.5MB and are a light user would you move to the new 750K ? Is there any on the 600K soon to be 750K now feel the new 300K is fast enough for what they use? Would anyone move up from their present level to the next after this press release? Time for a poll :D |
Re: How many will consider changing levels now?
I recently upgraded from the 600Kbps tier to the 1Mbps tier so I certainly won't be changing :D

Re: How many will consider changing levels now?
I won't move down mainly because I upload a lot of photos to our family website. I can just about bear with 128k up, but 64k up on the entry-level service is just a little too much like going back to dial-up for my liking. If it weren't for that, I might have been tempted to experiment with the 300k service just to see if I could get by with it for browsing and occasional downloads.

I won't be moving - I send/receive a lot of photos for our website, and the 1.5 will make life easier (especially if I am playing CS when my other half is mailing/uploading pics)...

Re: How many will consider changing levels now?
Ive recently gone from 150 to 600 and havent noticed much of a difference, its faster on main websites and speedtests, but on P2P its no faster so I will probably go back, even if they dont change it to 300.

I will stick with 600/750 (for now). I don't download much, but I do listen to internet radio a lot, and I think more streaming video is around the corner.

Re: How many will consider changing levels now?
I'll probably be moving down to 750/128, mainly because I don't like being forced to pay £3 extra (£36 a year) for something I don't want and will be little benefit to me (as of the 1Mbps service, it's mainly the 256k upstream I want).
I don't like being told I'm getting extra for free when I'm not and being told I should be happy to pay that bit more for the extra 500kbps, which although that's all very nice, does not represent a huge difference on a 1Mbps connection given typical use and limits of the Internet (i.e. for downloads, you may get that big download half an hour earlier if you're lucky, but I'm not really that bothered about it). The only benefit beyond slightly quicker downloads I could see is if I had three people using three PCs on my network and I can effectively give each 500kbps. At the end of the day though £38 is too much to pay (£35 was pushing it as it was). Telewest can do it for £35. |

I wont be downgrading. 300k is still too slow for streaming video.
