There is no point doing this test until peak times in the evening or weekend. That's when the throttle kicks in.

During the day the upload is throttled, so you can check anytime to see if it has been lifted.

I removed image for now, will check with mods first if allowed.

ran the test 3 times earlier today and all 3 times upload was throttled . last time i did it it wasnt so in my mind there must have been a change made

Hi guys,

Just to clarify a few things that have come up on the thread:

We remove the P2P restrictions from customers' profiles when they upgrade or re-contract to new Totally Unlimited Broadband - typically it will take five working days for restrictions to be removed after these customers have placed their order.

Hope this helps. Thanks,

Stephanie

Woop!

I, for one, have no complaints.  The 'recontract' was seamless and it's clearly worked.

BT didn't have to remove the p2p block, and regardless of what they did I'm sure there will always be somebody who will manage to find some misplaced grammar in a BT email or something to complain about.

So yeah, I'm very glad I'm with BT!

Mine is the same as yours m8, I have posted on another thread, I have done three tests so far and one at 6.40p.m. and all the same results, looking good BT, I am now in broadband heaven!.:)

My speed restrictions appear to have been lifted but still no 50 gigs of cloud space.
