So where are all the rumours then?

Usually we'd be awash with umpteen million rumours by now because it's January and we should all be on 10mb, or was it 20mb, could have been 50mb come to think of it, or was it 10mb for free and 50mb for £9.99 a month?

So is the rumour mill still on holiday then?

Get them to come and fit a Cable Modem free of charge. I did and I got an upgrade to 4Mb thrown in and I'm paying £1.50 a month less for the privilege thanks to a rebate on my TV charges!

P.S. I heard that rumours had been banned on CF

I'll have a go.

I phoned retentions today as I was going to move to Sky Max and nice lady on phone said they're trialling 100mb to business at the moment and consumer version will be announced "soon". Don't know how long "soon" is in NTL speak though.
