			I rang them to say that I'd not been upgraded and I got fobbed off - if they give you anything better then I'll call them again!

			Nikko,
 I'm connected via a SACM.  Yes, we are ex-C&W - should this make a difference to the upgrade?

Just wondering has all of Manchester, Rochdale, Bury and Oldham been upgraded? if so would that mean that the new modem files could be sent out for the 1.5meg stb service?

			It's interesting how everyone on the Luton UBRs seems not to have been upgraded - at least it's not just me    |
