NTL 10mb

[Apex]

Any one on it ?

whats it like ?

any problems ?

I see that on the website it lists a faster upload speed, use that ?

Sorry for questions but am about to move into my gf's home with her family and we are looking moving into a bigger house not long after that and well, i allready pay £15pm for the connection so i don't see paying that towards it being a problem.

Its pretty good - but NTL:telewest kicks in February 2007 with new tarrifs and deals - it should be cheaper I am hearing - so careful what you commit to at this point

Hehe I downgraded from 4 mbit to 2 mbit this month had the bill in 17.99 still gettin 4 mbit speed though. Hoping that new prices will come out in Feb aswell.

I'm on 10mb, might drop the speed tho as I dont realllly need it

I'm on 10mb too, which I do use. I get a constant 1.17mb per sec, so am picking up a dvd sized file in around an hour. Have never had any downtime either, apart from overnight recently when we had really ****ty weather. Caps have never affected me either, even when I had large monthly transfers.

Can't fault them in my book, though I'd prefer not to pay £35 a month, but I guess that may change soon. Heard rumours of 20/1 being laucnhed in December too, but have no idea if that's true, what the pricing will be, and if it's capped or not.

just phone them up and say ur not happy, try get put through to retentions, they'll give it to you for 17.49 for 3 months, then you phone up again

I'm on 4Mbit for £12.49 (phoned up to haggle & I also have their TV - I've been a customer for 10+ years) & I've always been happy with the broadband connection.

Just read the forums

you will see that a lot of people are not happy with Blueyonder/telewest/NTL due to speed issues etc

[McMav]

Have to say only had one problem with NTL and it was a faulty modem and it was swapped out next day. Speeds been fine esp as I'm getting double what I'm paying for

Romours of 50mb connections with NTL & Blueyonder, hope its true

i think they're testing them at the minute, wont be around until Q3 2007 or something. they'll come to the 10meg people first, so im looking forward to it

Might not be in the place till march so am not hoping on it just yet , the 2mb ntl cable will do for now, still miles more stable then my "8mb adsl max at home"

[frazered]

i have pondered ntl for a while

are there any limits or shaping going on?

[Trox]

Think NTL and Blueyonder are one of the few companies that dont put limits and shaping on.

ADSL is pretty bad for that, noticed it when i was searching for broadband for a good mate.

Im not a fan boi honest... Saying ADSL just makes me feel dirty inside...

They use some limited shaping - check out the network forum.
