Of course you are. They put the price up first, then annouce the bandwidth increase later, so they can claim the increase is 'free'. Don't be taken in by ntl's PR spin.

If they had no intention of increasing bandwidth, do you really think they would increase the price of their top-tier service by about 4 times the current level of inflation while leaving their entry-level and mid-tier prices unchanged?

Full discussion of this aspect of the price/bandwidth changes is in this thread:
