With all that's had to be done the last week or so, I daresay it's not been a priority.

They won't start heavily plugging it until they know for sure it's ok. Very sensible.

I am sure it will be screamed from the rooftops in due course, why wouldn't they?

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 3)

I voted No on the poll there as I reboot CM and nothing. It was not until I went to Upgrade my Speed online thing that it went to 2mbit/200. Unlike the rest maybe I wont be downloading like a mad man just to see it come down faster, Ive done a broandband test and uploading some files to my Web Space (something I was going to do regardless of the upgrades).

0800 052 2000

Choose option 5. Be very apologetic and say you realise that there's probably a million other people asking the same thing, but is there any chance they could perform the upgrade for you now?

If you get a scottish person, it seems you get it done

It's clear enough on NTLs equivalent BB sales page

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 3)

Hi upgraded earlier to 2 meg and am very happy.....Done all the speedtests and everything seems fine, however web browsing has become much slower taking an initial 3-4 seconds before it decides to load up the page, and sometimes not loading at all. Now i understand there must be a hell of a lot more people using the web this evening but surely this shouldnt effect browsing. Anyone else experiencing these probs. Not having a moan up as am and have been very happy with NTL.

Cheers

I am not sure if this was asked before, but here it goes.
What will be the upload speed for the 3MB?
