It comes to those that wait.
Don`t forget, You have a choice, if you don`t like the service provided, **** off somewhere else and stop climbing on our tits and making a pain in the **** of yourselves.
Most of the people on here who complain about NTL`s service have not bothered to set up their PC`s or Modems or Routers properly and then blame the service provider for shoddy service.

You seem to be hinting that we are having issues with the 4mb upgrades.... we are ALL infact discussing NTL's current poor form with regards to the frequent service cut outs and breakdowns.

To quote a well known English phrase 'Up your ****!'

What?

Bearing in mind this thread is about (currently) 3 major nationwide apparent DNS outages affecting all NTL's customers, you've slightly missed the point.

I don't overly care whether I get 2/4/10mb speed or not, what I would like is dependable browsing and for NTL to invest some of my money into it.

It's a two way street Budweiser. If NTL provided a stable service then people wouldn't be behaving as you describe.

In fairness in this instance NTL have admitted it's a fault at their end - caused (allegedly) by Michael Jackson.

Re: Major connection issues! 6/6/06

Barewolf, I've sent you my name attached to your petition. Thanks for being someone who's got something like that organised!

The connection issues seem only to get worse, it used to be just Friday evenings, then Thursday evenings too, and now Tuesdays?!
