RFS = Ready For Service.
Samknows was probably updated quite recently, as in another thread they said they were asking C & W for up-to-date lists.

Demon is their in-house ISP. Not well regarded, like BT with BT Wholesale.
I recommend either vivaciti LLU Unlimited or xilo/uno Pro 16.
Note those are the only C & W products for each. All are "up to 24Mbps" depending on line length and condition of course, not limited to 16Mbps although xilo looks that way. Also note that the Pro 16 Office is ex Vat.
You can also get the vivaciti Surfwise Complete, and the "phone for info" Xilo/uno equivalent, but those are Full LLU where they take the line off BT so migrating out is a pain. They are Opal Wholesale from TT. Again the same syndrome applies, the TT line management does not apply to the Opal offerings so resellers are better than in-house.

One sometimes has to wonder about Marketing "experts", and corporate megalomania.
Ooohhh! We have a Golden Goose! We know we mustn't kill it, but wouldn't it be nice to call it "Mallard Superduck"?

If so, that's great.

It would be great if these RFS dates could be confirmed. ADSL24 responded saying:
"I have checked our C&W list and your exchange: Toll Bar ...does not seems to be on our list we received from our suppliers ...so i cannot confirm as to whether Sam Knows is right or incorrect."
They are neither saying that SamKnows is correct nor incorrect. I've contacted them again to see if they will confirm it with C&W!

Quick update, ADSL24 got back to me with this:
"I have raised a ticket enquiry with our supplier operations team and have asked them to verify if indeed your exchange is scheduled to be C&W LLU enabled at the end of Jan 2011. "
Will post when I receive a reply!
