I'm currently paying £25 for 600k down/128k up. I'd love to get 1024/256 for the same price. However I (reluctantly) don't think it can or should happen. It can't, because ntl can't be seen to be offering less than the competition - Joe Average Punter knows little about these things and throwaway statistics about the number of email addresses you can have sounds impressive. It shouldn't, because Joe Average Punter shouldn't have to go setting things up separately all over the place. The internet is meant to be getting easier, not more complicated.

The blatantly obvious solution would be for ntl to get its act together. Whether they will or not ... well, I'm waiting to see.

and me as well
