I had to endure nearly 10 weeks of telephone calls and bad service before my problem was resolved, (not to my satisfaction). I had to be settling for a downgrade of my XL package for my internet connection.

My main concern is that if I opt for 20MB will I have to jump through the same hoops if I cannot get somewhere close to this speed or is it now routine to get a more reliable and faster download speed?
If you check out this link then you will see that you will also get a £5 a month reduction for the first six months when upgrading to 30mb from 10Mb.

If you're on 10Mb broadband you can upgrade for a one-off payment of £30 and you'll get £5 off your bill for 6 months.
