Add that to the extra congestion caused on the upstream path from the 1Mbit users with 256k uploads and it soon becomes clear that they are the least profitable tier, they pay the lowest rate per kbit of the tiers both now and in the future after the price increases etc while downloading markedly more than the other tiers.
Well not really, just giving you the facts to be honest, whether you want to believe me and anyone else who tells you this or not is entirely up to you, but the above are the incontrovertible facts.

Place your calculations that show that 1mb users are the least profitable.
Dont blame 1mb users who only take what they are entitled to, get on to NTL and get them to increase capacity.
The fact is NTL touted an unlimited product, this is not only my opinion.
If your gripe is that some pull more than 30gb per month, what are NTL doing about it?
Sending out letters means jack **** imo, unless they back it up with a court case.
Will they do that? no.
Why? because the trading standards may have something to say on the matter.
