Retailers can apply whatever caps they desire of course.

Thanks for the link, isn't that Option 4, was there an Option 5 which was the full 30Mbps up?

Even if we got the 20Mbps up, that's still good enough, well its better than the 0.8Mbps we get currently on our ADSL2+ connection LOL

Oh I know and understand that, it was due to the last time I checked it was 30 up which tallies up with their DSL Checker and also what they are getting down our road, well the last time I spoke to them they was.

I will enquire once it all goes live, like I said hopefully in 8 days.
Just emailed BTOR to check the date hasn't been pushed back (even though all the work has been completed)

Don't ever recall an option 5 - it may have existed but I tend to remember daft things like that.

I thought Option 4 was the 330/20 and Option 5 was the 330/30.

Or was that Option 3 and 4, like I said its been a while since I fully checked.

Anyhow 20 up is still better than 0.8Mbps LOL

And by magic I can find the speed tests.

This is a BT user and their postcode confirms native WBC FTTP available.

A different user on BT, FTTC available but also fibre on demand so implication someone has ordered FoD via BT, so will be business division I believe.

Bit confused now, so is that saying it used to be 30Mbps up and is now 20Mbps up, or are you saying its still 30 up?

Because that speed test was dated March 13th 2015 for the WBC FTTP and July 13th 2015 for the second one.

A native FTTP in a London flat http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/results.html...

Only broadband option is FTTP to this block of flats too, no sign of copper broadband

LOL, still not answered my question, so due to all these getting 30Mbps up with BT that you are linking to are you saying its still available, or is all the new customers upgrading to FTTP with BT will only get the 20Mbps up?

There is where I am confused, like I said the few people that I know down my road that already have FTTP all apart from 1 have the full speeds, the single one is an elderly couple that got I think the 40/10 package due to it suited them and is still ok when their grand kids visit.

Cannot say for sure, the FTTP pages on BT Retail sometimes vanish so the curation of them is far from perfect
So if you get something that is clearly 20 Mbps up then will tweak listing.

The data I can see suggests people still getting 30 Mbps so happy to leave it at 30 Mbps for now, unless BT clearly communicate it has dropped other than just on a webpage where copy/paste is often an issue
