and if it is true it nice to see they multiply the bottom tiers by 10 and the top tier by 8

It is true, in the sense that it is inevitable, that one day services will be this fast. Discussion or speculation about how NTL might organise its tiers once such speeds are available is utterly pointless however. There is absolutely no possibility that the information given out by that sales rep is accurate.
Think of it this way: name anything you can currently do on the internet whose performance would be noticably different whether delivered on an 80 or 100 meg line. Once you get to those sorts of speeds, speed-related tiers are irrelevant, unless someone starts offering something via the internet that is currently not available at all (don't no-one say HDTV either, AFAIK you need at least 200Mb, and probably access to the Internet2 network, to do that).
