Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
I'm just asking out of curiousity what people would change if they could about their service, just one thing though as all of them are very tickable
It's just really about seeing what people like and want the most from their services as I'm nosey :p

Re: Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
To be honest, i am not too bothered about having any of them....
I personally don't have the need for higher up/download, have never had any problems with the "usage guideline" and share the associate discount price with my housemates anyway so it is cheap for me

Re: Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
You're far too easily pleased, I have 2Mbit/256k DSL at home and it feels freaking slow now

I'm not fussed about the 1GB/day "usage guideline", as I rarely get near that. Certainly not for "3 or 4 days in a 14 day period".
The current download speeds are fine for my use.
Upload...higher upload would be nice for gaming, but as I haven't actually bothered with XBoxLive for ages now it's not a big thing (well, until Halo 2...)
So I think the main change I'd like to see would be lower prices. Especially now that ADSL is getting more competitive.

Re: Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
I just wish my downloads would keep to a consistant pace instead of sloping off to nothing.Thank goodness for IDA.

Re: Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
to be realistic, 3mbit down 400k upload at £50 per month or 5mbit down 500k upload at £65-£70.
heck even if it was downstream that got a bump of speed i would be happy.
im not willing to pay over the odds for a fast service though.

Re: Where Do You Want Your Service To Go
as I use my connection mainly for browsing & downloading the upload doesn't matter. I don't download enough for the 'cap' to be an issue or to require a faster connection, so I would be quite happy to maintain the status quo, but pay less.
