Andy, I wonder if you are getting terms mixed up here?

There are 2 factors you need to consider about these packages.  One is the 
speed of downloads and the other is the amount of data you can download in a 
month.

The amount of data you can download has nothing to do with the telephone 
exchange but the speed of download does.

Usually tests are done to see what your line can support speedwise and if 
these tests do not allow you any increase in speed you would not receive the 
upgrade.

You talk about an increase from 750 MB  2 GB.  I suspect you may be talking 
about the amount you can download here and you would need this amount of 
data, particularly if you listen to Internet radio or download a lot of 
music, films etc.

Cheers

Hi Joe.

Freeserve were charging me £17.00 a month for 750 mb.  A month or so ago, I
upgraded to £22.00 a month for 2 gb.  Unfortunately, my local exchange, so
I'm told, has wiring that cannot take that amount, so I've paid extra for
nothing.  I believe with Freeserve that I need to stay with them for 12
months, so there is little I can do at present.  Wouldn't it be nice to get
the full Sky packages, 2 gb of Broadband and free telephone calls for a
monthly cost of say £50.00, or cheaper.  Perhaps that day will come.  Best
wishes.  Andy
