I sometimes find it tricky to get the full 4mbit on BY in my area (Liverpool), and I put this down to Telewest not allocating enough bandwidth to the loop that my cable modem is on - after all, I live in a student area and I think there are a quite a few customers who spank the connection all day long.

For this reason, I don't really want them to introduce a 6/8/10mbit service without first working out their bandwidth allocation. It's not fair that I pay £50/month for a 4mbit service and don't get it because they're too tight to buy a bigger pipe for everyone in the area.
