Re: 2mbit NTL BB Campaign
Forced restriction
It defeats the object of having/paying for a fast BB connection.

Re: 2mbit NTL BB Campaign
IMO ntl will not give its customers a 2mbit connection until at least 2005 i think we will see ntl focus on its freedom products very heavily next year when they bring out ADSL for it and they will also be focusing on getting cr3 rolled out to as many ppl that can take it without major upgrades happening i.e some London customers
anyway thats how I see things

I can see your point.
Maybe they could launch a service that is uncaped for use by pro users only. If they were to keep the lamers of the service half the problems would disapear.
Perhaps a small exam or online test for things like virus knowlege and security knowlage.........
Time to take my tablets !!

Yes, but Mr Goodland lost out in the "reorganisation".

Re: 2mbit NTL BB Campaign
I signed the petition just in case, but I doubt there will be a result, NTL unlike other isp's I have used do not listen to their customers and have a bad infrastructure that wouldn't cope with the service, ADSL has caught up with and overtook ntl, telewest likewise has done the same, I dont mind a capped service but it has to be reasonable, ie 1mbit cap higher than 600kbit cap and it would also need to be a lot higher than 1 gig a day, something like at least 75 gig a month would be reasonable and the 150 kbit service something like a 20 gig cap, they would make the cost savings and they would get higher % of 1mbit customers, but of course ntl have no brains and they cant think of simple things like that.

The EX C&W areas are the same infrastructure as Telewests just a shame the worst companyn got hold of us.. I would have preferred Telewest after all these years under NTL. If Telewest can do 2mb so can the ex C&W areas its NTL's own areas that had the worse infrastructure typical.
I would consider the 2mb service but only if the AUP was more user friendly and not anti-customer
