Im on 2 meg and although faster than 1meg a lot of sites were unavailable such as Ebay.
I contacted CS and India and got it fixed with a proxy.
Now the speed test is .75 meg and feels slower than that.
Ive been with NTL for over 5 years and the service can be dire at times but now I wonder whether NTL ever intended providing what they advertise.
Doubling the speeds but in reality halving them to many customers.
I wish they would go belly up and put a lot of people out of their misery.
They are charging me ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£600 a year for a service I wouldnt inflict on anyone for more than a fiver.
