Does NTL 10Mb Broadband still have a bandwidth limit?

I know they used to have a 75GB per month limit on the 10Mb connection, but
looking at their website I can find no mention of it. Do they still have
the limit? Thanks.

No.. the limit was removed a while back.

When NTL & Telewest/Blueyonder joined forces they are making / have made
their services similar
The first thing was take the cap off NTL 10Meg service the next is to
upgrade NTL 1Meg to 2Megs
all to fall in line with the Blueyonder offerings

Unlimited --- with the provisio that you do not abuse other customers
by your actions ( a FUP ?)

What has that to do with the question which was about NTL?

Off the topic but I live in a heavily populated Telewest area inside the
M25. After the merger I thought I would see what I could get. Answer -
nothing. The whole area is only wired as analogue and cannot support
broadband at all.

Think you will find there is, but it's hidden behind their fair user
policy....

But it's not enforced. Since Jan this year, I've managed to download 1TB of
data from newsgroups. I only found out when I looked at the download history
from my newsgroup provider. Haven't had a letter yet.
