Come on, how daft is that? I really am interested in any rational explanation - is the £3 monthly price adjustment really the straw that broke the camel's back?

Having watched people's reactions/comments-I would suspect it
is the straw that broke the camel's back.
ntl's 'service' does not seem to be improving, yet they are putting their prices up while they really should be going
down due to competition.
Also taking into account Aizad Hussain (MD of ntl) said to myself & Ben that he didn't want to offer 1 2MB service as it would only attract heavy downloaders (leechers I think was the expression he actually used). Now because Telewest have increased their speeds by 50%, ntl have done the same & although they are not offering 2MB speeds, they are very nearly there with 1.5, so are these the customers Aizad does not want?
£38.00 per month
is too much money IMO for a 1 meg BB connection (cable
or DSL) Everyone else seems to be hovering at the magic pricing point of sub £35.00, but ntl are goingin the opposite direction, & I believe that people are not prepared to continue paying increased pricing for no increase in 'service' in this day & age.
Just my take on things.....
