10Mb broadband upgrade from NTL!

[Guest Monolithix [MVP]]

Either i've missed the rollout or i'm lucky enough to be in the first area NTL to have my 3Mb broadband upgraded to 10Mb next week, and the price reduced to £35 a month!

Anyone else heard about this?

[Guest Tech]

yes, all blueyonder have this also from last month :)

same with NTL however there will be no cap taken off or increase of usage of downloading!

bonus for blueyonder as they do not put capping! :D

[Guest Pondrew]

Yep, benefited from Blueyonder upgrading our Broadband to 10meg. Excellent even if I do suspect the wifi network in the house is slowing things...

What's the upload speed with th 10mb ntl?

[Guest robbiehales]

I have just recently left NTL due to the very very poor customer service, shame as i would have loved 10Mb broadbabnd !! although when i told them i was leavin the did offer me free broadband for a year, free TV for 6 months and no phone line rental for 6 months !! amazing what they will do to keep the ever increasing number of customers who are off to other companies.

Upload is 512k. Download limit is 75GB a month, even our house will struggle to trash that (we've never had any issues with the current 30GB cap :))

I finally ditched NTL to go elsewhere, unfortunately the grass was NOT greener, had a call from NTL retentions who said they would let me have 6 months free cable @ 10MB, and then a cut price after that. Luvin 10MB.

I have recently moved house and have just signed up with sky, Tiscali and BT and am now wishing I hadn't.

Anyone know of any way to get out of my 12 month contracts?

[Guest awarner [MVP]]

Only way is to pay it up or claim yourself as bankrupt.

[Guest Rob.P]

I was well pleased when I got my 10MB upgrade I think it happened on Friday but the oil depot fire knocked out the NTL services for Hemel on Monday, have just got it back, so not sure what speed it's running at at the moment :)

Has there been a fire then? :)

[Guest Rob.P]

Flipping chav kids smoking down an alley and threw their butts over the wrong wall, bang I get woken up at 6am on a SUNDAY morning cause of it :D :)

and I had to put up with staying in doors all day with no internet!

(Hats of to the emergency services, especially the FB and especially not the FBU)

[Guest JamShady]

Woohoo, I upgraded to 10Mb, and got it half price for a year :)

[Guest fraser]

I've got the 10 meg as well, it's blisteringly fast. Can download a 30 minute TV episode in four minutes!! It's rumoured that while the cap is 75G, you won't get hassled unless you go way over for two or more consequative months.

Mind you, NTL have a letter from me on file from three years ago stating that I will leave their phone, cable and internet service the day I ever receive a warning over usage. I'm guessing their retentions department will be able to cancel any warnings I get. :) (not that I download a lot, I just don't want to have to worry about these things)

[Guest JamShady]

Yeah, I download very little, usually game trailers from IGN or something. But when I'm downloading something, I want it NOW!

And I'm sure it's handly for Xbox Live too :)

[Guest amo]

Ive upgraded to 10Mb too - now just need something to abuse/test out this connection on... any ideas?
