Dear customer
COMING SOON - EVEN FASTER BROADBAND
At Telewest, we're committed to providing you the best broadband services at the best possible value.
So with this in mind, we’re especially pleased to announce our second programme of speed upgrades this year to make your blueyonder service even faster.
We increased the speed of your Internet service in April by 50%, from 512Kbps to your current speed of 750Kbps. When this second speed upgrade is completed, your new speed will be 1Mbps – a further 33% increase.
Furthermore, this increase will come at NO EXTRA COST and with completely UNLIMITED USAGE. Your current monthly charge will stay exactly the same.

So will NTL By the looks of it :D
Last week we announced that ntl have plans to change and introduce more speed changes. Ntl have now confirmed that broadband speeds are to be increased to 1MB, 2MB and 3MB at existing prices. The new speeds are expected to arrive in the first quarter of 2005.
Simon Duffy, chief executive of ntl has stated:-
“To retain our leadership position in broadband, we will be increasing our ntl:home products in Q1 2005 to 1MB, 2MB & 3MB at existing prices this decision reflects our determination to ensure that we will always have the most competitive range of broadband products in the market place.”
Speeds are to be increased significantly, whilst remaining at the same prices. Also note the bandwidth caps that apply to each speed in brackets.
300K 1MB – £17.99. (5GB* monthly usage allowance)
750K 2MB – £24.99. (30GB* monthly usage allowance)
1.5MB 3MB – £37.99. (40GB* monthly usage allowance)
These speeds will be rolled out to new customers in first quarter of 2005. Existing customers can upgrade to these new speeds by paying a £25 administration fee.
Read customers reactions or post comments in this topic on our forum.
Update: *These have yet to be confirmed by ntl, figures provided by internal source. It’s not yet certain if the above monthly usage allowances are just guidelines, however the currently usage allowance for existing speeds, is 1GB per day – but this is seen as a guide only and not necessarily an enforcement. NTL has not been known to strictly enforce the current usage allowance. |
