About 3 months ago, I upgraded from 512 Kbit ADSL to 1 Mbit ADSL. This necessitated a price jump from 21.99 a month to 29.99. Not bad really, considering that Force9 give me things like 250 MB of web storage on their main network, spam and virus scanning (which I don’t -really- need) and other odds and ends.

Browsing adslguide.org.uk, I noticed that F9 had changed their pricing plan for Premier accounts (which I have) so that 21.99 gets you up to 2 MBit if your line can handle it. I opened a support ticket on Friday enquiring about any regrade fees (as they’re actually intending to regrade everyone by July), and had 2 MBit ADSL by Monday morning. Very very nice indeed. Cost me 14.99 to regrade – I could have waited, but heck, I’m worth it :)

The big question is, “Is it noticeable?” The answer is “Yes!”
