Having said that, they'll then throttle my bandwidth to 5mbps (I think) which will then enable me to continue AT THE VERY SAME SPEED which caused me to be a 'bandwidth abuser' as you called me.
So all this decision has done is to pee me off, which isn't hard at the moment because i'm now heading into my 3rd week of getting a service of less than 1Mbps, more time on the phone today being told there is no problem and being asked to do stupid tests

why don't you get your work to provide you with the right tools to do the job then - here we have a 2mb leased line & our typist who works from home has been provided with a 1mb leased line which means she has no problems sending or receiving stuff
