Would you f***ing believe it!!

They've only gone and done it again!! No one can tell me why it keeps happening - if any sensible NTL people are in - can someone please either a) investigate it - or b) escalate it to someone that can?

Thanks

1st 128K took 532 ms = 246376 Bytes/sec = approx 2050 kbits/sec
2nd 128K took 547 ms = 239620 Bytes/sec = approx 1994 kbits/sec
3rd 128K took 531 ms = 246840 Bytes/sec = approx 2054 kbits/sec
4th 128K took 531 ms = 246840 Bytes/sec = approx 2054 kbits/sec

Hi, i ran this off Robin's speed test and i wondered if this
is what i should be expecting? I am on a 3meg connection. I
downloaded a file yesterday while on the phone with tech
support and it downloaded at about 270k i think.

Thanks very much in advance!
