Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
Sorted - Just as NTL line up a new batch of "You broke the 1gb limit" letters...
Are the upload speeds changing also?

Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
The new speeds should hopefully be in effect very soon which is great news
... but has anyone heard any news about increasing the 1gig a day limits? Maybe one of the NTL staff might be able to give us an idea what people think of it on the inside?

There is to be no change to the download limit imposed by ntl (other than the fact you will nw be able to reach it sooner than before of course!)

Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
Dont mean to be pessimistic, but just been on the phone to a very knowledgeable chap at ntl support/faults who has insisted that there are still around 10,000 set top boxes that need replacing and in fact there is no date given at all!
He said that he's been given an initial date of around late October/November, regardless of SACM or STB. "Upgrades for SACM and STB will go ahead when the boxes have been replaced"
I said "ntl said late summer! October/November aint summer" - to which he replied.... "Well it is ntl you know!"
LOL.

Dunno about date but there weren't 10,000 STBs that needed replacing in the first place....

Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
very confusing, as different areas have been given "apparent" dates for the upgrades which i reckon is just aload of lies

Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
It will arrive when it arrives.All the speculation in the world won't change that.
Personally I'm too busy for any more of this rumour mongering(especially from erolz) so I'm unsubcribing from this now very pointless thread.
Incog.

Re: CF receive broadband speed upgrade Dates
Well, we'll find out on sunday. If it goes through, then yay!
If not, It'll have to be put down as "Coming soon".
More to the point, it certainly stopped people grumbling about the price hike in the broadband... mission successful for NTL, Not quite sure I see the incentive for them to actually deliver anymore
