Anyone got speed issues on NTL in Stoke on Trent?

[ScoobyDoo]

Been on a 10mb connection with NTL in Stoke on Trent since 10mb was first released and have had a steady and very good connection, maxing out my connection to newshosting servers when needed.

For the past 2 days the connection has been shocking, speed test results are showing 1mb, download speeds are around 200k/sec instead of 1.1mb.

Tried downloading at 6am this morning before i went to work and it was working at full speed, but its back to 200k and below now.

Anyone else in Stoke having the same problems?, wondered if its getting over subscribed or if there are any other problems, checked out the ntl status line and it isnt reporting anything.

I'm with Telewest and i've got 4MB and i've been experiencing the same problems as you over the past 2-3 days. I don't know how long since this has happened but NTL and Telewest companys have been merged together and i think they may still be working on it. I'm in Kent so it might be that everyone is having this problem at the moment.

We're going to phone Telewest tommorow and see what's going on. It's ridiculous for my online games hehe.
