News On The 4MB Upgrade?

[DarkGashX]

Nikesh, that is true, I still think they should offer 5, 10 and 20Mbit with 500k, 1Mb and 2Mb standard upload and then on top offer a special upload package so for those who want the extra upload pay a bit extra and say get the following 1Mb, 2Mb, 4Mb.

Would attract a lot of new customers.

I'd be downgrading to the 5 down and 1 up package if that ever happened. Well, i would if i was going to be in this country

I think a lot of people probably go for the top package for the upload speed as well these days. Shame there isn't a cable version of SDSL really

To clarify my earlier post :

I was on TV - XL, Phone - Evenings & Weekends, Broadband - L (4Mb)

I now have TV -XL, Phone - Anytime, Broadband - XL

I've been told that during May I will get a "free" upgrade to 20Mb on the broadband.

Before agreeing I asked when 4Mb would be increase and he said around September time and it would go up to "8 or 10".

There hsa been no offical email or document internal about a 4 mb upgrade .The only upgrade happing is the 10 to 20 meg .So he might of told you a porky mate Some customers on 4 meg have been given a free upgrade to 10

ADSL Im totaly against, simply because everyone i know got all excited that their adsl 8meg lines would be great in comparison to my 4meg cable line.

oh they were so wrong, ive seen people struggle to get 3meg out of their adsl.

only adsl company i do respect is pipex, i know a couple of people with their 2mb service who never see it below 2mb or above 2mb. nice to see they are advertising realistic speeds.

i got online very beginning about 4 years ago, 512k broadband from telewest.

never used dialup before so didnt think much off it. but back then 512k blueyonder was major big!

had the same line, modem & service ever since, cant remmber any downtime and always had maximum line speed of what we were paying for, which is now 4meg £25 per month. - on the uddingston uBR

The Mrs was on the phone to NTL\VM last week and she was told that 4mb will be going up to 10mb but no time frame was given to her.
