    Ha, at the end of the call your man offered me an unadvertised (available to existing customers only) offer to bump my 30mb line to 50mb for the same price I'm paying at present (I also have anytime world), just a new 12 month contract, I took it :)

    Meh, I received that mail last week, rang in and they told me there must be a mistake as 50Mb is not available at my address.

    They told me that was a standard offer. Extend your contract and get the 50Mb.

    Does that include all wireless devices? Laptops, tablets, iPods etc. Maybe your neighbours are piggybacking on your WiFi?

    I agree that all ISPS should not be allowed mention the word unlimited if it's not really unlimited.

    Currently UPC have the best product in the country. 500 gigs is a very generous allowance. There is no need for them to lie. Just because everyone else does it, doesn't mean they should.
