I'm on sotn12 in SO16 and haven't had any capacity issues lately but I haven't been upgraded to 152Mbps yet (despite registering as soon as it was available). I pretty much always get 120Mb/11Mb on speed tests, best that BT could offer up until recently was 5Mbps as I'm miles from the exchange. In fact if anything things have improved a lot over the last 6 - 12 months which to me says that they have been investing in the network in Southampton.
I did have terrible issues with my signal last year (high upstream power level) which finally went away (touch wood!) this year despite visits from engineers who would fix it temporarily (or refer it to networks) and then the fault would re-occur about a month later. Now it's pretty much perfect in the mid 40s upstream and -2 ish downstream with an FPA attached. We've also gone from 6 channels downstream to 8 channels downstream in the last couple of months.
So I guess, in summary, my experience has been pretty good of late.
