Who said they "did this"?
This is just a rumour.

Re: Another speed increase?

Now you see why Retentions were so eager to hold on to customers, anyone for leaving now?
Hey and the chances are I will GET 10Mbt unlike hit and miss ADSL.
ntl IS Broadband Britain.
Just watercooling the modem as we speak!

Of course the members who are always ready to put ntl down are noticeable by their absence from this thread..

Take WAY more than watercooling *passes the liquid nitrogen and retreats to a safe distance....

Re: Another speed increase?

Did any NTL workers here have any idea about this??

If so WHY DID YOU KEEP IT FROM US!!!

Seems a pretty big jump in speeds though? Can it be acheived on the network that has to cope with so many customers?

I'd say that you've already missed the first one on page 2...

Plus, I'd would have thought it would be better to wait and see what is announced officially, before people moan.

1) No comment.

2) Do you post confidential information about your employer on public message boards? No? There you go

3) Have you been reading the service status? Have a looksie at the weekly maintenance looooads of upgrading done locally, core network has loads of capacity spare.

I am subject to the same NDA that all NTL employees are subject to
