I just can't see ntl offering the current range of BB tiers and the new ones just announced together.
So I think that peeps will be forced onto the new tariffs with the new caps/guidelines.
Just my take on it though.....

and new customers will only have the option for the 'new' tiers. existing customers will be allowed to stay on the 'old' ones until there is such a small number of people left on the those that NTL think they can force them to change. much like they have treated the people on the £5 a month modem discount!
whatever the case, in my opinion the new tiers are progress and you cant stand in the way of it. and you also cant offer the perfect product to all your customers - some will have to compromise and move to the £25 option if the 5GB allowance isnt enough or ditch NTL.

not really but I wish you'd get a move on and get these speed increases implemented ASAP so I can then moan about how slow my 3mb connection is and how NTL should double it to 6mb!

What b0llocks. Comments like the above annoy the hell out of me.. Why are all high usage users automatically tarred as warez monkeys?

I don't want a service for next to nothing.. I want clarification of what NTL are going to offer in terms of supporting their ~50K 'power users'. The initial announcements do not include any details about the caps apart from stating that they will exist. Providing NTL don't try charging extorinate amounts for overages (and I don't change providers) I will be more than willing to pay my wack but at present the not knowing is annoying.
I have not hidden the fact that I simply don't beleive in caps. That will not change but as many have stated huge portions of the UK BBand market are going that way. If I have to suck it and see then I'd at least like some detail of what the sucking is going to cost

In all honesty (& this is not aimed at any of the quality ntl associates we have post here), but I would never go back to having ntl provide me with any service I'm afraid.....
Having seen what goes on inside, & also at the top, I wouldn't give them a penny again.
Just being honest.....
