The speed increases and "hard" caps haven't happened yet. NTL can still inform its customers before they happen.

Have you read the terms and conditions regarding changes in the AUP?

There can be at least two possibilities here. The current "soft" cap could be hardened for customers staying on the old contract or other sections of the T&Cs could be applied. Also the old contract could be altered to provide "hard" caps.
NTL seem to be offering the majority of its customers an excellent deal. We will have to wait and see how it all pans out.
