Am I gold or Silver?
 

Hi all,

Can anybody tell me if I am on the gold or silver tariff?

I upgraded to 1MB for a month, decided I didn't need it so call CS and downgrded back to 600.

I have just checked docsdiag, and get this:


QoS max upstream bandwidth = 256000 bps
QoS max downstream bandwidth = 1024000 bps
SigQu: Signal to Noise Ratio = 31.7 dB
Cable modem status = Operational
Upstream transmit signal power = 45.2 dBmV
Date and Time = 2004-06-14,14:36:21.0
Configuration filename = ntlhm120-silver.cm

I appear to be on a silver config but a 1024000 bps.

More importantly, what am I being charged for?
My DD doesn't come out till later in the month so I don't know what I'm paying.

Where about in the country are you?

heh my guess is if it is saying silver config you will be charged for 600kbit and recieve the 1mbit service.

Re: Am I gold or Silver?
 

might be an idea to call cust services to confirm what package your on because you have forgot Just in case you havent been downgraded and they bill you for the 1mb service

Re: Am I gold or Silver?
 

Just called CS. I am on Silver. He did tell me that the speeds have just been increased, but that would only put me on 750.

I was upfront with him, and he didn't seem bothered that I appear to be getting 1mb for the price of 600, So all is well.

I'll probably find it dropped to 750 by tomorrow!:D

Re: Am I gold or Silver?
 

Have the speeds been increased then?

no.

:LOL: Short and sweet :)

Re: Am I gold or Silver?
 

I have just spoken to NTL customer services and the speed increases still have no set date, but the person did slip up and mention that the 1Mb will probably be going to 2Mb instead of 1.5Mb to be 'sort of inline with Telewest and will rise to 3Mb when the 2 companies merge' (I must have missed something if this has been mentioned!!!!!).

Don't you just love rumours :)

Re: Am I gold or Silver?
 

I know what you mean pem, especially that one about a speed increase in late summer, well now they have a brilliant excuse if it takes till xmas, youre going to get 2mb!;)
