As for cost cutting would be nice to match BT instead of NTL now playing 2nd Fiddle to worse providers aint gonna make NTL any more new customers or tempt them from BT

They need to come up with something and not just for new users perhaps a overall cost cut in a few month for the new/current 1mb users as other costs seem ok.
Whilst I dont play down the effort made by NTL's staff to give everyone a boost, I still think its little too late.

It was quoted that they spent £1.5 million on the upgrades. NTL currently have 1.2 million customers. All of which are paying at least £17.99 a month (bar the few % discounted , small).

Now that ADSL has finally caught up, Plus.Net is offering 2mbit ADSL lines for £39.99 a month , with no limits. Before you complain about "lack of bandwidth", plus.net openly invite people to check ADSL usage.

I know where im going next Feburary :-)
