ive been with them about 14 months on 2mb, up until january time everything was perfect, after that speeds were dodgy, but im at uni so doesnt really effect me.

anyway since the shaping started my torrent speeds have been dire, even with encryption, and still are now, so dont use it anymore

regraded to max last week, even though im about 2.2km away from the exchange, i get about 600kb/s download, and on newsgroups get about 750kb/s max :cool:

much faster then torrents

getting about 400k/sec normally but only 200 on newsgroups :mad:

we upgraded to max last monday surely it should have settled down by now?

edit - gah can only have 4 connections going at the same time on astraweb

They are the spawn of Satan :mad:

Seriously though, had problems after migrating to max. After 2 months of no replies to raised tickets I cancelled and went to NTL only to find that even though my account is no longer active, the lovely people that they are still decided to take money from my bank as per normal.

Spoke to them today and they've assured me it won't happen again, but I'll have to wait and see.

Before going to max I was more than happy with the service and never had a need to raise a single ticket. Think I was just unlucky with max and jumped over to it too early.
