Blueyonder Speed Increase
Posted by wl on November 11th, 2004


Hi Guys,

I've literally just got off the phone to Blueyonder - been ordering Telewest
services for the new house i'm moving to shortly.

Anyway, I was ordering the 1.5Mb service, and I was told that as from today,
that has been upgraded to 2Mb for no extra charge - the 750Kb service has
been upgraded to 1Mb, and the 3Mb service has been upgraded to 4Mb - the
256Kb service remains the same.

I asked about upstream speeds, and they told me that all upstream speeds for
the 750Kb service and above have been increased by 50%.

Anyone noticed any difference?

They lied... AFAIK its only the 4MB service that has 50% extra upload

The upgrades don't happen until December/January

The current 3Mbit (to be 4Mbit) is the only service to benefit from an
increase in upstream speed, from 256 to 384.

You don't half talk rubbish.

Maybe when BT can offer 2Mb / 3Mb / 4Mb *DSL to as many customers as TW,
then your "thoughts" might hold water.
