Yeah, same problems here too. I'm in County Durham, and having major latency issues playing World of Warcraft, getting pings 500+
I agree, it seems like the problem is in the Manchester area. Everything is fine on a tracert until I hit hop 8, then I get this...

8 212 ms 200 ms 205 ms man-bb-b-ae0-0.inet.ntl.com [62.253.187.178]

...nasty

Been on to tech support, and spoke to a woman in India. She took the MAC address of my modem, and asked me to reboot in safe mode. Once I did this, she then told me that there is a known issue with high latency's, slow downloading and internet browsing at the moment, but unfortunatley she is was unable to give any sort of time frame as to when it will be resolved (the usual).
Internet browsing is fine, downloading seems to be ok also.

I just hope they sort this out soon.
