Hi Fellas,

What would be the case with Pace STB? Keep on re-booting hoping for the best?

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

OMG!!

Once again this board is way ahead of customer services.

I just tried to change from 1.5 mb to 2 mb and was told that they had no roll out date and that their system wasn't updated yet.

Apparently clicking the 2mb button on my account doesn't do anything

Seems I can either upgrade to 3mb online and pay 37.99 for another month or wait until I get my bill and call CS again.

And you're likely to get people queueing up to help you with comments like that aren't you?

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

Can we get some sort of Mod interaction here......If the upgrade was supposed to happen automatically over the next few weeks - and the 8th was the day that NTL go live with SELLING the new tiers to new cutsomers, well, somethign just seems wrong. I wouldn't at all be surprised if there was an admin charge on these upgrading peeps bill next month.

Hope not....anyone keen to share their knowledge on this one?

I'm in cov area, and don't really want to upgrade until i know more.

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

Customers on the 750K package or 1.5MB package, will receive a FREE automatic upgrade to 2MB and 3MB. 750K customers with a black PACE Set top box and want to change to the new 2MB speed, need to arrange with ntl a Set top box swap, this will be a free swap.



ok? ,,,,

Are you sure this is the way to do it? I'm sure that this web page was there a couple of weeks ago, and that it was the way to upgrade from the old speeds e.g. the paid way

Since the link is triggering the new upgraded speeds and therefor the new pricing packages the likelyhood of that happening is slim
