Ok, thanks for the advice. But this is the thing I am not sure of - Will they definately be able to upgrade me or would I have to wait etc.. ?

They will definately be able to upgrade you - whether you have to wait or not depends on if they can do it straight away.

If they can do it immediately, then you won't have to wait.

If, on the other hand they cannot do it straight away, I imagine there will be a wait involved.

But what if they can do it immediately, but they make him wait? Can he sue??

How will he know? If he can prove he has waited as a result of having been made to wait, then doubtless he can apply to wait for a place in the queue for legal advice to state whether it is worth waiting for further advice on whether or not to engage a legal team with a view to petitioning the Crown prosecution Service to wait for permission to apply to sue.

Unable to upgrade connection

When I try to upgrade my connection (currently 1.5mb) to the 3mb service, I enter my email address on the NTL website & it says that im not the account registered for the internet, strange as im the primary email address for the account since day one...

Is anyone at NTL able to look into this for me as im a little concerned as to who is the primary account...

Thanks

Re: Unable to upgrade connection

Best bet might be to give BB tech support a call on Monday, or to give CS a quick phone call.

Oh, and you may find that this get's [MERGED] with the main upgrade thread, maybe.....

Both protocols work fine - occasionally users that do not understand will state 'My connection is the Pitts' which generates confusion with the romantically inclined.

Re: *ALL* Speed Upgrade Discussion In Here Please (Part 4)

Hi guys, newbie here

I am on a discounted rate for 750k broadband and was wondering whether upgrading the speed online will revert me to the standard price for 2meg.

Thanks...
