Then after a couple of days of endless speed/ping tests on 15 March:

Early hours of the next day (16 March - keep up eveyone!!):

On the 17 March after we had all discussed how much all these changes must be costing you, it looked like you were going to stick it out on your new tier:

13:17 - 18 March, after we've all debated at length if you are for real or not the news we've all been expecting:

I don't need 30Meg, I don't need 50Meg, I don't need 100Meg and I don't need 200Meg in future. I only surf the internet, forum, chat and email and that's was it.

@Telford, I was going to do a graph of your speed changes, but thought it might give me a funny turn. Can't you see from the above why nobody can take anything you say seriously?
If you manage to go for 18 months without changing to a different package I could be tempted to pay your 19th months broadband for you, not that I think for a minute I'll be getting my cheque book out!!
Cheers
