blueyonder have re-written the English dictionary

Customers in certain areas are havin their speeds throttled.
Up to half the speed they pay for.
From approx 5pm, till midnight, every day.
It's believed that this will be introduced across their whole network,
to all customers.

service is unlimited"

"Stop lying, no one likes anyone who lies.

Yes I am calling you a liar, because that is what you are when you spout
your lies."

It depends entirely on context - you get to download as much as you want
but it will be slower at peak times. That's what will happen anyway in
practice if demand exceeds available bandwidth, they've just chosen to
shape it so that everyone gets at least some of it.

Up to this last week I have had no problems at all with BY. However,
now I keep getting outages. Sometimes only my VoIP works but I can't
operate anything else (browsing,newsgroups,MSN etc.). Sometimes
everything goes. I am hoping that this is only a glitch.
This might have been due to them making the changes??

It's called throttling Brian up to six weeks ago I had no problems
with BY either but now we are down to half the speed we should be
getting from 4 till midnight every weekday and most of the weekend.

All this has come about due to the takeover by NTL I am certain of it
