One thing though, about this new upgrade:
With the 4mb tier now having a 400k upstream, surely a lot of 10mb customers will just downgrade to it, as 4mb is still a very good speed, and the drop in upstream is minimal. Are ntl trying to push users off the higher tier, so the network can cope better?
