I am getting the same bumps off Guildford (Surrey). They started on the 1st October and were preceded by a 2 hour outage on the 29th September which is highly probably when my area was upgraded to double upload.
In the past (months ago) there were two national outages following changes in down and up channels when we went from 4 to 5 to 8 down and up to 2 up.
As a casual observation it does look as though changes in user configuration causes major network problems and hopefully these bumps are a short term deliberate effect until something can be sorted out. There will be all hell to pay if they become a regular feature because mass complaints will be evident if we all suffer prime time useless service.
I did not really notice the reduction in what was an excellent service because over the past few weeks I have been using BT Infinity for most of my internet work.
