Also is there any news if ntl will allow all users to upgrade to 10mb online. As in ppl with 3mb, 2mb and 1mb will be able to upgrade instantly as soon as the update starts to be issued to any package they wish (10 with 75gb or 10mb with **gb or 10mb with **gb)???
ntl are in uncharted water (for them) with the speed increase so the bet is it will be phased in as stated in the report, depending on how the 3Mbs crowd goes will decide how soon the 1Mbs and 2Mbs customers will be boosted, then if that all goes well the unlimited options will be phased in.
They got their sums right with the last speed increase so there is a good chance that things will happen a good deal sooner then the stated timescale, hell, if it runs to the end of 2006 there will be a mass exodus long before then.
To pace things out a little ntl will probably not inform customers directly, but as before let them hear from a friendly forum.
There has been a frenzy of activity upgrading the infrastructure these past months, ntl no doubt want to get everything finished as soon as possible, then they can start to push the new services they have lined up.
