As has already been said we will just have to wait and see what exactly i being offered and sadly this does seem many months of from what I have read so far....

10Mbit is pretty useless at such a low cap....

With the way LLU is unfolding accross the country andf current providers offering 500GB of downloads on a line 2Mbit slower than NTL it makes you wonder why NTL choose to offer 425GB LESS ! !
Also note that the service is £8 cheaper than NTL also.....Makes you wonder what the NTL line will charge if you were to download 500GB to make a comparison to Ukonline....? Obviuosly not everyone can get the full 8MB and perhaps NTL see this as an oportunity to fleece alot of money form those that have no choice than to go with NTL becuase of their distance from the Exchange.......

With BT insistant that they will be able to provide 8MB to most houses anyway sometime this year, it again makes you question NTL's strategy here.
I think NTL need to offer a Higher cap on a Par with ADSL suppliers......

I could use 10Mbit quite easily and would be very happy for it, but at a 75GB cap I doubt I will be going for it becuase I would eat that 75GB in a week no problem.

I am pretty sure I will opt for one of the slower Uncapped tiers which I am hoping will will still be a substantial jump over the 3MB that I currently have Maybe a 7-8Mbit (the current rumoured 5mbit is to slow) line I would be happy with if it were uncapped......

To be Honest the MAIN thing that will make me decide on which tier I go for will be the Upstream increase that is bound to come with this. Better Ping times in online games and being able to upload quicker to FTP's etc will be what I am looking for.


10Mbit with a 75Gb cap is quite silly but like they say....

"There should be something for everyone"

If not there is always BT who will have their 8Mbit live in october hopefully. There will bound to be plenty of Uncapped providers on this, or at least a damn site higher cap than the 75GB.......
