lust2luv Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 But what price is the service going to be? £24.99 I'd guess, can't see them dropping everybody to the 1Mb price or forcing people to the 3Mb price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 the report I read said everybody will be forced on a to a 'pay per mb' model if they want the 10mb download.... JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieSteve Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 the report I read said everybody will be forced on a to a 'pay per mb' model if they want the 10mb download.... JB Thats crap. I currently pay £50 a month for 4Mb. Let's hope Telewest follow suit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt T Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 the report I read said everybody will be forced on a to a 'pay per mb' model if they want the 10mb download.... JB Yep, certainly not free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivan Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 the report I read said everybody will be forced on a to a 'pay per mb' model if they want the 10mb download.... JBDid you take advantage of the free upgrade to 2MB? I'm sure you noticed the "thin end of the wedge" clause which limited you to 1GB per day, whereas before we weren't limited at all... Saw it coming, but was hoping it wouldn't happen quite so soon. Still, as long as the limits are realistic I can live with it. Unfortunately, as long as their router is connected to the cable, it's downloading and uploading all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Branners Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 yeah, I saw the change in the T&C but I tend not to hammer my bandwidth so 1gb per day is okay for me. JB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
