They said there is no emails in your inbox - i said i know that - becuasr there not getting there in the damm first place.

I upgraded to 1mbit line and got to say the speed are between the 600k service and the 1mbit sometimes but cannot go back for another month now. Maybe its time to switch to ADSL - look at it this way - it cannot get any worse can it?

Anybody else found this when they upgrade to 1mbit ??
I wrote this as I at the time had two problem - Email and the speed of my Line. I was trying to explain that I rang support help line to see what was happened to my mail as people were getting bounced emails from NTL side and these were mails for my job - thus costing me money (as in delay for payments). What I was basically saying was in the end I ended off Buying a Domain name with email so that i would get mail through - which it has been ever since.

My Second part of the post was my speed of the 1mbit line - I Understand that you do not get the full speed every single time because of the way the web works - as in were your getting stuff from might be slow and so forth. It was overall Slow - on bandwidth testers etc all claimed I had a 600K line and sometimes 700 - not 1mbit.

Since writing this post - my speeds have now gone back to full speed - so probably some work has been done to spread the load more.

I have re-read my very first post and cannot see which part people did not understand - when the first reply came as stated it annoyed me - why - no idea - would have been better maybe to word it as "Could you please expand on your problem as I do not understand what the problem is" for exmaple.

Reading through this thread and only a couple of people asked me questions about my problem - the rest told me to sort my attitude out.

If the problem is at my end - then i am more than capable of sorting this out - my job is computer related - i do not know everything - no one can do but quite technical as it goes. I am sorry I came across as a "Know it all" - not the sort of person I am in Real Life.
