Lincoln and 200meg
 
Anyone in Lincoln area, primarily LN6 area, managed to get the 200 meg service?

Mine still says 152 is max speed.

I keep getting emails saying it will defo be here by the end of November. I am in Doddington Park (LN6 3xx). There is another forum member who is in North Hykeham who rang up for it but I think he is LN5. I think you can get it no probs if you ring up and ask but tbh I am happy to wait. I would ring up for it if it meant an increase in upload speed which is what I did last time but I don't think I am going to notice the extra 50mbits down.

I phoned up and went through to retentions on 10/10 and I was upgraded.
I am LN6 in North Hykeham near the shops at The Forum.

DN35 and they have upgraded me from 152 to 162.

Not seen anything about 200mb but it that to everyone? Also on my SH2 where do I find the config file as I am struggling to find.

I now see that VM are quoting the free upgrade to March 2016 instead of end of November 2015. The postcode check shows this area (LN5) as 200 mbts now. I think a call to retentions is in order as I'm out of contract and only have SH1. What do you guys think?

Yes. Don't forget about the impending price rise as well.
