Serious part: Aint there alot of doom and gloom merchants/conspiracy theorists out there.

Every second post I see on here seems to follow the form of: My speeds are crap, my pings are high, NTL:Telewest are crooks, ADSL is better/cheaper, BT are gods.

Can i claim a discount from NTL for allowing me to be hit by an asteroid. Do you have the number for retentions must be quick before everyone else calls.

Retentions have said due to all the Asteroid discounts they cannot afford to deflect it any more so we are all going to die

Apparently NTL said it was an error on the webpage, which has now been corrected. It was the upload rates for TW that had been quoted and not NTL's.

10 print "To repeat myself in a infinite loop."

20 print "No one had there upload changed. There is a network freeze at the moment which means that there can be no i repeat NO changes on mass to the system."

30 cls

40 goto 10

If you really want a upload go Beoffice up to 2.5meg upload speed mine starts this friday and no traffic shaping here but you need to be under 2km from the exchange.

Erm nice typing... how do you live 150m from a box that can give Sky? You receive Sky from a satellite and require a dish
