it sure would. Afaik they arent doing any additional physical upgrades with the network in order to provide additional capacity for 152mbits, that was done when they did the work for 120mbits. It doesn't matter whether they give you 152mbits now or next year, it is going to be the same either way. All this stuff about "we can't put it through till your area has been enabled" is rubbish. My area was initally something like July-September this year when they first announced the dates, then it went to July - December and I have just looked again and now it is December - May 2015. What a joke! I don't know why they bother announcing stuff when they know it is going to take 2 years for them to do.

Anyways, with this in mind, I rang retentions in February or March (can't remember) and tried explaining the situation to India. The person I was walking to didn't have a clue what I was going on about and put me through to somebody in England and the lady I spoke to was really nice. I have never rang up for early upgrades before or discounts and agreed to put the code on my account for 152mbits but warned me that it probably wouldn't work until my area was due. I didn't say anything and proceeded to let her do her stuff because I knew it didn't work like that, and low and behold, 152mbits came down in a jiffy and I get full speed all the time. The fact that I have got it a year ahead of when they want to give it to me begs belief.
