What about the upload being upgraded to 1mb?

I'd like it to be true, so I'll keep my fingers crossed (but won't hold my breath) because I'd most likely downgrade to 4Mb if that were the case.

No you won't you need the up speed.

there's also a new thread on digitalspy this morning claiming this as fact.

I'm wondering where The Bloke Down The Pub has gone...

I can confirm that this is true. Just checked the intranet

I think this is to get the speeds a bit more in line with the Telewest offerings.

or downgrade if you compare it to what was promised last year and I can imagine some customers 1meg and 2meg will be a bit ****ed off when they find out they have held back moving to ADSL based on the belief they were getting a free upgrade to 10meg this summer.

New and existing 3Mb Broadband customers are the first to experience the power of 10Mb.

Is this for all ntl customers, everywhere?

[etccarmageddon]

it's even clearer here that ALL customers should expect 10meg by the end of 2006:-

The new product strategy creates a set of “up to 10Mb as standard” cable broadband products with different bandwidth options to match usage plus a series of unlimited products at different speeds
