How do the speeds:-

In terms of who you contact, it will be who you ordered the service from, so I believe BT Retail in your case.

Okay so the improved connection speeds says the line has been moved to the new cab and both wires are connected, pointing towards an authentication issue, i.e. where the port you are connected to in the cabinet is mapped to the ISP - this can be wrong sometimes.

Eventually someone in support should realise this and get things sorted out, but you will need to keep chasing.
