Is this just down to BT being careful that they are only advertising something that people can definitely get (a bit like saying 76Mb on the 80Mb wholesale package)?
So, the wholesale transport is 330/30 but the advertised retail is 300/20?

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. Well I was told that our FTTP was down to go live end of July by openreach via email (still waiting for a status update from them), so if that goes to plan, I will enquire with BT what options I have available to us and their speeds and then its an upto 2 weeks for engineer visits to hook us up, only then I will really know the exact speeds.
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 Yeah, well 20Mbps is still better than nothing, but hoping for 30Mbps up for my content uploads, just means I would have a less of a break between uploads LOL.
Thanks

http://www.thinkbroadband.com/isp/bt/package/1480.html Thanks for the link, isn't that Option 4, was there an Option 5 which was the full 30Mbps up?
No, Option 4 is the top

http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/results.html... Ah, ok, was that the 200Mbps down option or was it due to everyone hammering their connections?
Also I wouldn't mind getting that Burst Speed Upload all the time LOL.
Was that your connection?

Yes, my connection. Speedtests seem to be impacted by software on my PC and/or BT traffic management.

I would say OUCH if that was the full hog option.

According to this page, 330/30 is still available from them.
Very strangely, 100/30 seems to be current, but is hugely (18%) more expensive!
The indispensable man or woman passes from the scene, and what happens next is more or less the same thing as was happening before.

Like I said I will find out when my FTTP goes live and is available to order.
