The ISP launched an 8 meg service ten months ago and is now planning to build on that with the release of a 24 meg product from next month.
Although prices have yet to be confirmed the company said the service would cost under £30 a month.
In a statement Chris Stening, top dog at UK Online, said: "We've been pushing the current ADSL technology to its limits with 8Mb broadband since late last year."
Today's anouncement follows hard on the heals of rival ISP "Be", which revealed yesterday that it is planning a pilot of its 24 meg service in the London area.
Bulldog - another LLU operator which has been in the news recently for all the wrong reasons - is also telling its customers that it is planning to release a 20 meg service sometime soon.
So thats Uk Online with 20meg at £30,
Be Pilots with 24meg at £20 (as part of a trial)
Bulldog with 20meg
and we have NTL on 10meg and not available for everyone till end of next year (insert laugh here)

Quick question...
How many of the above are available to everyone and if not, when?
Just that at least one of those mentioned is in the London area only and I can't say about the others.
