still 50-55mbps here in Astoria, by the Triboro. Asked a tech that came thru my ally way. Asked her about the 100mbps coming to NYC. She said sometime after TWC goes full digital here in Astoria, Queens. Dont know about the other boroughs sorry.

TWC is already 100% digital in the NYC city area though so they could roll it out any time.

Who would agree to pay $20 extra based on no concrete evidence of something happening except a few rumors and he-said/ she-said?

Not rumors, TWC issued a press release and official blog that said by years end. It says a lot about TWC that they haven't posted a follow-up for NYC to at least identify a new window.

There is.
said by Nick21:

That's how it was done in LA and HI markets. I was on promo pricing but switched since I wanted Ultimate 100 now and not in 2014. When you signed up for Ultimate 50 at a discounted price, the terms were X per month for X months at 50/5. I guess if you want Ultimate 100, you will have to decide between the upgrade or the discount. Anyway not my decision, makes no difference to me but I decided to pay an extra $20 to get 100 because an extra 50 is worth $20 to me.

107/21? 21Mbps upstream? I seriously hope infastruture is ready to handle this if a lot of people on a node have this service especially upstream, I dont wanna end up having upstream issues during peak time usage.

Also, so far this is all just few special folks and noone in my area can even get this so... yea. Although I wouldnt rush twc because my guess is that many areas in nyc that they service are not up to spec to truly handle that without issues.

I got this response from online chat:

"We are currently updating the ultimate 100 to all our service area. Currently, the time frame is not available. Rest assured, we will update that speed very soon"

Just after 5am right now and I have totally lost my upload speed, getting 57 down and 0.2 up on speedtest.net. Never seen this before with my service. Shut down network and rebooted modem and still getting those same speeds with bad upload. Hopefully its a sign of TWC setting up for the speed increases.

Guess it will happen whenever it happens. TWC has been terrible, no communication or updates. The LA site doesn't even mention 100.

Looks like another flop. Did Manhattan ever get its speed increase? They were supposed to be first before 2014.

When i said no, "some time this month then..."
