Certainly
ntl's initial speed increase came as a knee jerk reaction to TW's original speed increase, they haven't led the market here, they've just taken TW's idea & made it faster-not market leading IMO.

But could you if you wanted to? (no)

I though people were against naming ntl associates?
Whether you think it's good enough or not, I'm not gonna place those people's job's in jeopardy-you know as well as I do that ntl would probably sack them for disclosing confidential information, & that I am not prepared to do just to prove to you (anyone actually) that I know, sorry.

I thought I had-there are cureently exchanges that can't get it, but the 'coming soon' is a reality, not a figment of their imagination a la ntl.

But we are talking about
"Market Leaders" here in this discussion, & Bulldog are exactly that. I think they were the
1st ISP to install their own hardware in BT's exchanges, & offer 2 meg DSL, when the other DSL ISPs were waiting from the nod from BT-Now
that's market leading!

You don;t have to like ntl Neil, but at least be fair when you compare - which you so are not.

I don't agree-we are talking about market leading, & ntl are not that whatever way you look at it.
They followed TW's speeds increase, their DTV doesn't offer the functionality that Sky's does, they have only just got around to introducing Spam filters on their mail servers (when most other ISPs have had them for yonks), their email 'service' has been poor (to say the least!) for the best part of 18 months, their webspace package is poor compared to what most other ISPs offer (scripts etc)
That's not a market leader, & not a company that offers a
viable product anymore-most other providsers offer far more for your money IMO.
