Re: *ALL* Speed Upgrade Discussion In Here Please (Part 2)

Ok lets think for a moment, most of the UK populations see's this as the choice.

BT NTL AOL WANNADOO

BT play dirty games like I seen with my friend, his adsl install got put back a month then after he found out from nildram 3 hours later BT cold called him saying they could do it the next day if he switches to BT isp.

As a consumer the best isp's are generally unknown, which is why the poor ones have such high amount of customers. BT's cap has only been on for around a month or so they didnt activate it until january so I wouldnt expect much fallback from it until after 6 months then we will see if they carry on gaining customers.

Leaving NTL isnt simple I say time and time again, it involves changing phone provider as well and some people are limited to NTL only, NTL DO have a local monopoly, they are not tied by the same guidelines that BT have by ofcom and the government and they dont have to wholesale their service.

I will get the name of the norway isp the next time I speak to my friend, although they lost 40%, it doesnt mean I said NTL will lose 40% it was meant to show what can happen when drastic changes are made.

Sorry I dont sit here all day posting every 15 mins, I dont know if people are been paid by ntl to or not but I have better things to do then spend the day arguing my point, I know I am not wanted by my isp as I dont fit their 50% operating profit requirement.
