I’ve got a new Internet
I've got a new internet and it's all shiney and fast 
Before
After
Which isn't too bad for £1 a month more than I'm paying now! The speedtest.net results are pretty inaccurate but it's still shows more than double the upload and more than 50% more download. I did get even faster speeds in other speed tests maxing out at about 47MBit download which is pretty good!

Yes, the speed test is wrong, why should my upload be slower than the download with my work internet?
Anyway, my DSL at home is much slower than yours

I’ve just saved my self £1.25 by enabling eBilling (I didn’t realise it was an option before otherwise I’d have signed up already!). So my new internet is now 25p a month cheaper than before :p
