ok not have 10mb long but it was perfect for about 1 day...

as from then i've been recieving no more then 2mb. download... this takes the **** so bad, free upgrade my **** thats because they dont want people to be on the guarenteed 4mb.

ages aqgo they offered us a trail off the 10mb ( which is now 20mb ) and it was less then 2mb i was recieveing which is why i staid on 4mb...


now we've had this free upgrade...

any ideas on what i can do????

I doubt that ntl will ever be able to do anything to fix your problem. Virgin Media might though ;)
