Really NTL you shoot yourself in the foot every F**kin day. And potentially such a good company. Increase the limit of the 10mb service to unlimited and the country will sign up in droves.
Why leave the connection running whilst you are at work? Can't you download enough overnight on a 2 Mb service?

10 Mb unlimited is not an option. The country would not sign up in droves as these forums would be full of posts saying they are supposed to be on a 10 Mb service but get sub 1 Mb performance. There is a small minority of customers who want to download 100's of Gb per month who will spoil the internet experience of the masses who are quite content with capped 10 Mb or slower uncapped speeds.

NTL have tried to cover the needs of the vast majority of their customers. 10 Mb with a 75 Gb cap and 512k uploads should satisfy the gamers and those who occasionally want large files downloaded or uploaded as fast as possible. 2 Mb or lower with unlimited usage should satisfy those who don't want to clock watch their usage.
