for ntl speed upgrades does anyone have any info on the uncapped speeds on offer?

**Paul** · 05-11-2005, 22:23

There are no uncapped speeds available afaik, except perhaps the 512k option that the 'naughty' users are being transferred to ....

oh ok, thought id read something on teh forum here about plans for uncapped slower teirs along with the 10mbit upgrade.

SMHarman · 05-11-2005, 22:41

THere are to be some new plans (I imagine) so at the moment the three tiers will all be 10Mb with differing caps and then there will be another (possibly slower - 5MB?) with no cap, possibly the same price.

I never mentioned plans, I was referring to now.

The new 10Mbps will have a 75GB cap for the upgraded 3mbps users, and obviously a lower cap for the 2M and 1M users when they get upgraded next year. So at the end of the day, everyone will be on 10Mbps, with differing limits based on the price you pay.

As for uncapped, that would be telling

, but I think you may be pleasently surprised.

Boooo. Party pooper

I hope they are good uncapped services.

damn you, tell us now.

The idea of everyone on 10mb with individual usage limits (and I take it, charges to suit??), suits me down to the ground.

I have been monitoring my usage for about 6 months now with Netmeter (excellent little prog). I am using approximately 7gig a month. A charge that would reflect my moderate usage when compared to the 30gig limit is more than welcomed by me

Well the new (highest) 10M service is 75GB/month. You can reasonably assume the middle tier will be more than 7GB/month, and the lowest one less - so when the new services come in, you will be able to 'move down' to a cheaper service (as indeed will I).

I hope so lol
