Where's my upgrade?

If you're a Broadband L customer and want to know when you'll be receiving your free upgrade to our new, super-speedy 10Mb service, then you've come to the right place.
Keep an eye on this page as we'll be announcing more dates throughout the Summer.
And remember, to get the new speed we advise that you reboot your modem.

The 2MB is mean to be going to 4MB soon, presumably after they've completed this?

No it's not. The 2MB is staying where it is

Guess that explains it...

and they've been 'completing' this for about 4 months now...

How do you find out when your areas going to be updated??

www.samknows.com (http://www.samknows.com)

Anyway.. If you haven't yet heard that because of websites like iPlayer, YouTube and other bandwith munching services clogging up the servers, you will recieve upto 3 quaters of your speed, you will never reach full.
