Do you reckon if I asked NTL to up my speed to the 600 Kb they would discover that I am not paying?

Decision, decision free 150 or pay 600

dunno arf, they gave us the 500k (b4 it changed to 600) on a month's free trial, then kept us on it for about 3months for no extra charge, and now it seems theyve dropped us to around 250, bloody idiots
