Question 10 meg unlimited?

There's a rumour staring on TOS that 10meg is going unlimited. Anyone here in the know?

Not in the know personally but from someone that 'was' in the know, they said that there was talk of having a few different 10 meg price structure packages, unlimited being one, can't remember what the others were but it was something like a 2 gig cap and 10 gig cap, obviously with various costs, like I said, can't remember the exact caps and prices

Come on Ignition spill the beans! Any unlimited speculation publicity can only be good publicity.

the other site = what http://forums.ntlhell.co.uk/ was reffered to on nthw.com as there used to be trouble between the sites and that is no longer the case.

Indeed. Certain members of the admin team (myself and Russ AFAIK) are members of TOS as well..

Correct, you will

The stuff in my PM is not suitable for public consumption, though my PMs rarely are for various reasons

Re: 10 meg unlimited?

That would be great news, something good, of course the cynic in me says that with the current network problems in *some* areas hardly anyone there will reach 10mb, so its kinda like 1 or 2 meg, which is already unlimited

The worry of course is that everywhere *else* will become dead slow when its announced and people start hammering it.

But if true, NTL deserve kudos for a good move at last !

Re: 10 meg unlimited?

My guess would be 'unlimited' but traffic shaped to hell (much like Pipex do now)

With Pipex, if you are a bandwidth hog, they write to you. If you don't tone it down, they throttle you leeching ability between 6pm & 12pm to silly download speeds to try to encourage you to leech in the wee small hours.
