Yes but if the bandwidth gets capped, when you use it I think you get cut off until the next day or month. So that basically isn't "always on" internet ;)

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

I thought the only people that would get letters were those getting their BB through the STB?

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

No, it includes people with the SCAM as well. Basically any one who has broadband with NTL get the limit.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

I think it is all about what area you live in. And whether your area is heavily contended. If not many people have BB in your area you can do what you like. If it's a heavily used area they'll crack down on you pretty fast.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

If that was the case, people would leave NTL. EVERY ONE has this "guide", if it was like that it wouldn't be fair :erm:

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

It is now optional for ADSL users. You can use your AOL Master screen name + password on your router = ADSL connection. And the connection itself seems like a typical ADSL line.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Anyway my speed hasn't been increased yet.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

still wouldnt trust aol :disturbd: :disturbd: :disturbd:

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Like getting the same cap on 3 different teirs is fair? :D

As far as i know they are the facts though. Ntl are only sending out letters to offenders in highly contended areas. Can someone back me up on this? I read it on here, but can't remember where.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

DieDie i dont get what you are getting at.

BT 512kbps 15gb bandwidth 24.99

NTL 750kbps 30gb bandwidth 24.99

Whats the debate about? :confused:

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

I think we have slighty shifted off topic now - Any chance we can get back on topic. Thanks.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Sorry, i thought it was 30GB. Still leaves AOL ahead of the rest. Along with the likes of Bulldog. It's just frustrating to see other people getting a much better deal with other providers.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Received a letter today detailing the speed increases and saying upgrade programme starts in August.


Letter also details the price changes for telephone and TV packages.

OI! I said that last month, :p Nice to see im not the only one with that opinion though, if it maximises profit, they'll do it, and so far it looks like it might be working for wanadont and British Hellcom, so caps probably will invade most ISP's :p

Also *ON TOPIC* Im in on the Biggleswade UBR , not upgraded, yet, will inform if it changes.

EDIT : Blady ell I cant even spell where I live, oops :dunce:

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

you cant spell "bloody hell" either :)

I got my bill though the post yesterday but still nothing about the upgrades.
