Re: Double Speed

Funny that, if you put that postcode into the checker it comes back with that area not being able to get any cable services. Might want to try a bit harder.

Besides, I'm connected to a Telford UBR and the estimate is March to August 2013.

Hey TC, speeds look a bit down. You should be expecting a good 1% more than you're getting. If were you, I would do one of the following:

  1. Phone VM and cancel
  2. Phone VM and get a technician out
  3. Phone VM and change package
Cheers

Grim

PS, Sure I'm not alone when I say I've missed you - where have you been?

Re: Double Speed

Havn't checked my double speed upgrade schedule for a while, it originally said October 2012, Just checked it now and it says 'Between March 2013 and August 2013' !!! Maybe another year? Thats ridiculous - it really is.

---------- Post added at 18:03 ---------- Previous post was at 17:56 ----------

p.s. Last time i checked my availability for infinity my exchange wasn't short listed for this year, i've just checked and my exchange is now sceduled for 31st December 2012... January could be an interesting time. Over to you VM.

I'm pretty sure when it gave the October dates it wasn't just 'October 2012'

Mine originally said 'October onwards' and then changed to 'October 2012 - March 2013'. It now says the same as yours which is March 2013 - August 2013, so although it does seem some dates have moved out a bit, it's not as far as you may think it is.

Re: Double Speed

Its the general vaugness, October onwards in no way would suggest August 2013, as i've said in my previous post the infinity checker didn't give any hope of when that would be available in my area till they actually had a date.
