Have been having what are thought to be UBR related problems for the past 2 months (download is fine, upload is intermitently poor or very poor) and will be so very happy if it finally gets fixed :-)

Thanks,

Steve.
Quite a bit of work going on in Poole tommorow morning (finally! - relief for us as well as customers!). Don't know exactly regarding postcode areas who will be affected but one or two UBR's (in Poole) being resegmented and a new one put in as well. This should eliviate some of the congestion which is the problem at the moment.
