Depends on the area. I don't have ADSL, so can't verify this, but despite being physically less than 400 metres from the exchange (I can actually see the roof out of our back bedroom window), and apparently, about the same distance on the network, BT will not guarantee more than 6.5 meg on my phone line.

Perhaps if they spent money on improving service rather than giving out discounts and reducing their own income while cutting back on service this chap wouldn't be encountering these issues.
Agreed, and a point we have both made several times.
