Ok....
If it was the case (as you appear to be suggesting) that it was in fact ntl that decided to increase the downstream speed for no additional cost, & it was TW that copied them....
How on earth did Telewest manage to get it rolled out successfully & efficiently to all their customers, & 2 weeks ahead of schedule, & ntl have not even started yet?
I'll tell you why-ntl were caught napping by TW's decision & paniced to match their offer. The reason TW got it rolled out so quickly was that they had clearly planned for it & ntl had not.
[Edit]-If you are indeed suggesting (as I think you are) that it was in fact Telewest that copied ntl's idea of giving customer's a free downstream speed increase, then you have confirmed ntl to be the biggest, most incompetant bunch of monkeys around!
If TW copied ntl, & got their rollout done so quick, & all ntl can say is 'late summer', how stupid are ntl?
Not even ntl could feck something up of this proportion (could they......?)
