Oh yes, it affects 20CN ADSL 1 users as well.

then later after changing gateway:

That is fine and understood but I don't see something similar in my plusnet T&Cs, could be there but I have only seen something covering the first 90 days.

I wonder if Sky's speed guarantee is a hold-over from their ADSL service? It's a reasonable thing to offer when they own the DSLAM. But with FTTC no ISP owns the DSLAM so I don't see how any ISP can guarantee the connection speed. It seems a curiously pointless get-out-free clause. If your connection speed drops (as it likely will over time) there's nothing Sky can do about it and whatever FTTC ISP you move to will have the same speed.

There is only one to avoid silly G.INP issues on both ADSL/ADSL2+ and FTTC is to go onto Virgin Media Cable!

That's interesting, as it can't be anything to do with the G.INP rollout on FTTC. If it's affecting ADSLx as well then it's really bad news.

The slow peak time throughput / High latency & the G.inp rollout are completely different issues for a start the G.inp issue where the ECI modem that is unable to recognise G.inp rolls back to a interleaved state,
so high latency and a lower throughput level will be 24/7 not only during peak times, and also checking the BTW ip profile may confirm DLM activity ,
I'm not sure how people could get confused by the two issues

but only if it happens to be avaiable at the property you want bb, and then that too is far from perfect in some areas,

Some of us were banned from PN forums, but my memory is that one was told PN did not want his business anymore and terminated him. There is a way to settle it, a PN staff from those days can come on and confirm or deny my memory.

It's still more than four years ago, and you posted as though it was a recent happening.

All I basically complained about was that you should have made that clear when posting it.

It has to be said, Sky Fibre Pro has been nothing short of stunningly reliable in my experience - much against the expectations - it always achieves the full 80/20 it offers, anytime, all the time, and hasn't let me down.

Of course, it costs a lot more than PlusNet, but you get what you pay for...

Don't tell that to my colleague who lives in a shared house with Virgin Media - even with nobody else using it, latency is horrible in the evening, every evening. And this week, it's mostly been so bad on speed he can't stream a 360p level Netflix.
