No I am not. I pay for up to 8 meg, my line will do 6.5 meg and I get less than 1 meg during the day and 2 meg when everyone goes to bed!
I have been promised an engineer will call me on Tuesday evening, can't wait it should be an interesting conversation!!

I was paying the platinum package which is 8mb, fact is that my line doesn't support it so why pay for it? I just went for the gold package instead which was quite reasonable.
