BT Yahoo/Broadband doubling speed for free

Like AOL, BT are doubling speeds for no extra charge..mmm 2meg adsl.

However, no guarantee of when they get round to upgrading you

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4252663.stm
BT has followed in the footsteps of its ISP rivals today and announced that it is upping the speed of its retail broadband service at no extra cost.

BT Broadband and BT Yahoo! Broadband will now run at 2 Meg while the speed of BT Broadband Basic will be doubled to 1 Meg. If phone lines won't support the new higher rates, then BT says it will "offer the best speed available for your line".

The new speeds will kick in for new consumer customers from 17 February and for new business customers from 1 April. Migration of existing customers will start from the same dates.
