Max,
I live in Rossendale & had Infinity installed last October when it first became available here. It was the 'up to' 38Mb down, 9.5 Mb up speed with a 40GB cap option.

I was getting around 25Mb download and around 6Mb upload. The closer you are to those green BT street boxes, the better. I'm around 100 meters away.
This was a lot faster than i was receiving before & was happy with it with the exception of the 40GB limit.

BT kept telling me i was using over the 40GB most months. As an example, in May they claimed i used on average 3.75GB/day for the first 13 days. These figures were not possible.

As i will be doing more work over broadband in the next few months, i upgraded (12 month contract) to their go faster, unlimited download option of up to 76Mb/19Mb. I'm getting around 55Mb/19Mb.

Its good, its reliable & if you get a capped service, assume BT will lie, so measure it yourself from day one.
