As for advertising there may be a small clause that says subject to different areas so their advertising may still be inline and correct.
That is of cause if they have started it
Plus having worked for Virgin Media under Telewest Broadbanf franchise they normally tend to write to customers and select an X amount of good paying customers with a good service record with the company to ask them if they would mind in participating in the trial to test it for about 2-3 months then they tend to roll it out nationally

Indeed it is a trial and hopefully the comments you make in your final paragraph will be followed this time too. However, we do need to recognise that the bottom line for most customers is "are we getting good value for money?" Current broadband performance is very poor and if this form of traffic management is introduced as well, then, I fear the worst.
