Bottom line is that many customers do have a choice, whether or not to pay for the upper tiers. They can downgrade to more value for money pricing (if they can accept the loss of speed) or move to an ADSL ISP if there is one in the area. When customers start voting with their feet, Telewest would sit up and notice.
It's worth remembering that for a long while Telewest rather than ntl have been the instigators of speed increases. Just looks like at the moment they have got themselves out of sync with the broadband market. |
Yes but even 1mb through Telewest is 24.99 that £15 dearer than NTL. This is not right, Why should someone in Glasgow pay 9.99 for 1MB and just because I live in Edinburgh I have to pay 24.99. That is my point, whether or not I choose a slower speed or not is irrelevent, the whole point is a like for like service that 40-60% more expensive with Telewest.
