It is a joke that such a company can take the **** out of the customers as much as NTL are doing with this news on 10mb for all, the 20mb trials the 50mb rumors, the network barely handles it's current customers on 10mb, their custom service and tech departments and barely handle the customers they have, their network is crippled through all tiers, and they want to add more pressure?
I seriously take my hat off to the techincal guys on their servers  the pressure they're likely under from the fat cats who are only interested in profit is unreal, no doubt NTL will do this increase after increase rake in a HUGE profit and then the top men will sell out and retire rich leaving a company of disgruntled customers and a forever damaged reputation.
If in my area I could get a decent broadband service without NTL I would do but I hate BT and I hate NTL, but I am with NTL now and I don't plan on changing but I just wished to state my view.

Hertfordshire rock solid on 10meg and has always been rock solid for the past 3 yrs, full speed 24/7 so the network is not on its knees like everyone likes to make out.
Obviously lots of people have problems, I understand that, but theres millions of people who have rock steady connections and have done ever since they joined NTL.
NOW PLEASE NTL CAN I HAVE 20/50Meg!!
