Instead of doing a 3MB capped, why not a 2MB uncapped or 2.5?? Or why not pay another £5P/m to get uncapped etc.....? Just adding this option would cater for a whole load more people!!!
I would much rather have an uncapped 1Mbps service than a low-capped 2Mbps one. Unfortunately, I don't think NTL are going to be as sensible as you suggest - for example, when the new packages appear, I'd happily pay £35 or even £40 per month for 2Mbps down and 1Mbps up uncapped. I really think that all this is going to do is lose NTL customers - I know that when I move out in about 18 months' time I'll most certainly not be getting capped NTL if I can at all help it.

Talking to guys in the US who pay £30/month for uncapped 4Mbps/1Mbps lines just makes me sick. Hopefully UKOnline will start advertising more - if people started hearing of 8Mbps broadband with 500GB transfer surely NTL would be forced to jump to 10Mbps in order to compete
