Thats right. Tech Support can't make any package changes.... They have to be done by CS

Yes - I just wanted to pass on that I'd done this so I don't see why every one can't try it.

Having Upgraded via CS and waiting 2 hours for the upgrade which never happened I gave up waiting and did it via that webpage link in the end.

10 minutes later modem reboots by itself and I now have 2 meg.

I'm just praying it doesn't mess up my £19.99 I've always payed as like Paddy1 I too bought the modem for £150 years ago in return for a £5 discount.

Unlike Paddy1 though no price was quoted on the website during my upgrade all I had was the letters N/A for where the price should have been. I took a few screen grabs of this to cover myself incase billing screws up!

After all if they increase my price as well as my speed it wouldn't be a FREE upgrade would it ?

What do you use to test your connection speed?

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 4)

it would be a good idea to reboot your modem if customer services have done the upgrades for you

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 4)

Can i ask a question to the other associates who post here....

Have you guys upgraded yet via the website? If so, by doing so, have you stayed on the associate package charges?
