"Dear customer


COMING SOON - EVEN FASTER BROADBAND

At Telewest, we're committed to providing you the best broadband services at the best possible value.

So with this in mind, we’re especially pleased to announce our second programme of speed upgrades this year to make your blueyonder service even faster.

We increased the speed of your Internet service in April by 50%, from 512Kbps to your current speed of 750Kbps. When this second speed upgrade is completed, your new speed will be 1Mbps – a further 33% increase.

Furthermore, this increase will come at NO EXTRA COST and with completely UNLIMITED USAGE. Your current monthly charge will stay exactly the same.


THERE’S NOTHING YOU NEED TO DO

Work on our network will start in December and be completed by January 2005. Everything will happen automatically, so there’s nothing you need to do. There’s no need to contact us.

Once we’ve completed the work in your area, we’ll write to you again so you’ll know exactly when you can start enjoying your faster speed.

Cooooooooool Our blueyonder 750k downloads at 90k/sec now, so i'm not sure we will notice much difference?? Still, i'm pleased with it as it is!
