Fine. Just maybe this is being worked on. Meantime, please spare us your considered opinion of what ntl may or may not be planning/doing/not doing/spending. I have hedged around your vexatious outpourings before - but - finally - please desist from posting rubbish with a negative slant. Thanks.
the congested peering is confirmed by ntl staff and affects everyone, I dont call that ill informed.

95% also isnt universal.

If you cant take criticism which wasnt even aimed at you then dont speak at all, but attacking someone personally for good points they made and because you dont agree you try to discredit them.

Its kind of like owning a really nice villa, that you can only use for 1 month of each year

Not that im complaing, Bill C
Someone who knows whats going on. The real truth is the amount you can download is a bigger indication of what you get rather then max speed, especially when 10mbit you will be hard pushed to reach. Now before I offend my friend again, my point also goes to ukonline,bulldog and be for their 24mbit, it is all just a marketing gimmick. Ukonline's 500gig 8mbit is more then 75gig 10mbit tho.
