NTL deserve a clap for this, I think maybe the top tier should be higher cap (50 or 60 gig) but in general I like.

1 - Bottom tier is low cap to stop mass downgrading from middle to bottom tier
2 - Middle tier is same cap as now but a speed increase from 750kbit to 2mbit (250%)
3 - Top tier gets a cap increase and double speed

As it stands ntl is just using a soft cap system and I think for at least the first 6 months it will stay that way, they will probably monitor usage and and send out letters to people who really take the **** (900 gig a month), then if they see the problem becoming to widespread then they might introduce a hard capping system.
I also like how finally the bottom tier have a lower cap limit. I will at this time probably stay on the middle tier.
