Re: [merged] Price increase

nikko actually you are wrong

"150K box = Buy one, get one free, 100% larger box for the old price.
600K box = 25% extra free for the old price.
1024K box = 50% extra free for an 8% price increase"

all packages come with 30 gig traffic so it works like this

and what I work out will be after price changes, since you did the same.

300kbit users pay £170.99 per mbit traffic
750kbit users pay £249.99 per mbit traffic
1.5mbit users pay £379.99 per mbit traffic

the price rise and speed upgrades were NOT linked ntl original move was just to send a price rise to the top tieir only for their own reasons (I suspect they want people to downgrade), then the speed increases came after when blueyonder forced them into doing it. There is nothing stupid about expecting all customers to be treated the same, there is currently 2 major problems with the top tier package.

1 - users on the bottom tier can download the same amount
2 - the gap in price has increased by 30%
