1.5mb/256k 37.99
all capped to a 1GB guidance, not that ive ever recieved a letter I know on occasions my households 3 comps do take us over and Im just waiting for the dreaded letter to drop on the mat.
ADSL BB:
256k/???k 19.49
512k/256k 22.49
1mb/256k 26.99
2mb/256k 35.49
Unrestricted. here is the key difference as it makes NTL's lowest plan non-competetive. The higher plans NTL still really falls short in price speed and cap, so I deduct now is still a good time to give adsl a play.

£1.50 less for a quicker service.... how does this make ntl's low end plan non-competetive?
512k/256k 22.49 Vs. 750k/128k 24.99
Ok so ntl's is dearer by £2.50 however the majority (based on facts and figures) of 600k (750k) users have the speed to download not upload. So, again look at it.. 512k @ 4.3p per K (also not forgetting most 512k services are charged at 27.99), 750 @ 3.32p per K.
Which is better value for money? an extra £2.50 for an extra 238k, which the supplier you mention (for 256k, which is there or there about) charges £19.49 for?!
Top end I cannot arguee with but for the bottom 2, which accounts for 95% of ntl's customers it is nothing but good news.
Ok the upload's are a problem, and, as I've said previously, these are being looked into.
I still fail to see how this speed upgrade, at no extra cost (1mb users aside) can be looked upon in a negative manner!!!
How can people expect the company to improve, if everytime they do something good (which this is) there are people who try and find a way to shoot the company down?
