I know its a "free" upgrade so same price but the legality of billing someone for a product they dont have is questionable I think.

There's nothing illegal about it at all. *sigh*

The quote for service is UP TO 4meg - and 2 meg certainly comes into UPTO 4meg. WTF is it about people having to go to 'legalities' over something they know nothing about? The way the upgrades are happening, it's not possible to code the billing system with tariffs for some with 2meg, and other with 4meg.

I am SO glad I am not married or I think that sort of behaviour is grounds for divorce!

Like I said, we are sooo gonna be the last on the list.

I find giving small children press-ups till they cry is a good way to vent stress.
