I'm paying £10 a month for 10mbit down 768k up, completely unlimited with no traffic shaping, and ive yet to see any congestion. It should be 16mb but too far from the CO. the bad news, i'm going to be stuck on these speeds for ages whilst the incumbent milks ancient copper wires and not lucky enough to live in the 50% of the population that can get 50mbit cable Sky/o2 are the only decent large dsl isp's in the UK. The rest traffic shape heavily, have download limits and are congested. cheaper prices normally means crappier service, no room for future investment which is starting to become a issue in the uk now.
Wow that does suck.. Here I thought I had it bad because I pay 45.00 (+or-) a month for 2.5/384kbps lowest speed tier from windstream.
side note...Well since I am supposed to get 3 megs down, it does suck paying for something I am not getting. IT also sucks that I live in the city and cannot upgrade my speed even though I want to -_-'
