3mb people are going to be upgraded first, then it will be the rest next year, no way that anyone on less then 3mb will be upgraded.

Didn't NTL say they will not notify customers of the upgrades it's just a case of them hitting the switch then the customer doing a speed test to find out their speeds.

i wish ntl would tell us what is going on instead of us finding out from rumours people who for whatever reason are on 10mb trials.

I VERY strongly agree....but they probably wont tell us anything until they are actually rolling it out.

That might be a bit optimistic - I wouldn't be too sure that they've finished the trials of it yet. But having said that, it's anytime soon for those on 3Mbps.

Not even mentioning the fact that NTL themselves announced that those of us on 3Mb will be upgraded first, can you imagine the uproar that would ensue if those of us paying £38 p/month were upgraded after those customers paying less?
