I rang up the other day to add a second tv box to my services. I asked the CS guy how much extra it would cost me to go up to 20mb BB from 4. He made a confused sound and then said NOTHING. I didn't ask for anything special, I didn't complain about anything. I just got upgraded for free. I did however have to remind them that I had a 10base equiped modem which would need replacing.
I wonder if there are plans to upgrade the rest of 4Mb and I just called at the right time before it gets announced. Or have I missed something. Anyhow, I got 18.6Mb/sec last night on steam so I'm well chuffed.
