When you read these issues and they say it's being reviewed 6weekd later it does make you lose abit of confidence in the service, I know increasing capacity is alot more difficult, will this new hardware roll out make things abit easier going forward?

I've had peak-time congestion on my 50Mb since about 6months now. It became really noticeable christmas/New-Year week, but looking at TBB graphs it had been building for a few weeks prior I suspect. There's good nights and bad in terms of speed, but...long story short... the third review date is coming up in a week, and I'm absolutely confident of being given yet another date.
It does begin to feel like excuse after excuse, although I'm sure there are valid reasons each and every time it slips. Hopefully this will future-proof the area for another couple of years (like last time we had problems).
