Any Be Customers?

[CircleFaust]

It looks like my exchange will be upgraded with Be in June this year.

I was wondering how likely this is to happen at the proposed date.

was anyone here waiting on availability and did it happen on time?

or are you looking to move to them and when is your's due to be changed?

I'm with BT at the moment and being charged £24.99 a month for 20gb usage and 2 mb speed so i'm really eager to change!

Im changing the day Be* gets activated since it will be cheaper and hopefully faster than what i currently get.

Im pretty sure they keep to their word and activate exchanges on or before the set date.

At least Norn Iron is getting with the times with ADSL2+. Seems we always have to wait a few years from everyone else

we all need to wave a shout a lot more so they notice us, we're closest so i guess they'll see us first

What ISP where you with before and what was your normal sync rate? my attenuation is similar so im hoping to get around what you get, rough estimate i know, but still

I registered my e-mail on samknows.com and on the date given I received an e-mail saying my exchange had gone Be live the same day I made an order to be switched over.

Ah i see. You must be fairly close to your exchange? My current attenuation is 49db, so it must be the length from the exchange since im ~3.19km from it
