Extreme bandwidth usage has no relevance to these issues at all, using 500GB a week is clearly an abnormal usage pattern, and imho those who do so can go and get themselves a dedicated box as they have no business doing that on a home or business broadband connection that isn't 1:1.
X-Box chipped by any chance?
Sorry to seem insulting but you're exactly the kind of user that no ISP wants and who ntl are hoping to be shot of with the capped upgrades.
The new packages from BT Are fabulous news, this kind of competition will spur on the progress of HSI in the UK and as they move to 2 - 8Mbps will encourage the cablecos and LLU operators to compete through innovation.

Nope hes measured it at 7.2 , which as he says he can live with for the price.
He would have had cable, but he did'nt want to worry about the cap, he thinks ukonline's cap is very generous.
