Anyone else having problems with Pipex speeds?
I`ve just been automatically upgraded to 1Mg (got email this week) but it seems even slower linking to other sites. Or is this due to the maintenance they`re doing.Thanks

I`m on Pipex (2mb/s though) and am not having any problems.
:( :( :(
I`m trying to change from 1 mb to 2 mb and waiting for pipex to get back. Was yours part of the free upgrade?
Cheers

Hmm my connection seems ok. It could be your exchange. I`ve got the upgraded 1MB connection.
The free upgrade is supposed to be happening sometime "over the summer". I couldn`t wait so I paid a one off £15 fee to have it done now.
All rights reserved. All wrongs reversed.
I was having problems yesterday but seems ok now, Running off Cardiff, Llanishen exchange. I also couldn`t wait so paid the £15 (although havn`t been charged as yet ;) )
All the best

no, i`ve always gone for the fastest connection pipex offered, hopefully they will trial BT`s 8mb/s connections too if its available in my area :D
I was already on 2mb/s when pipex did the free upgrades, so i got £6 a month off my costs.
I got the auto upgrade to 1Mb, because I didn`t want to pay the £15 so waited and it was confirmed by pipex recently. However, I`ve emailed to go to 2Mb with limited usage for the same price, still haven`t heard anything.
And my pipex still running slow most of the time at 1Mb :( Maybe its my exchange then.

I eventually got reply from pipex.

The reasons why you have to pay an upgrade of £58.75 from Solo 1000 to Solo 200 2GB service is that it's classed as an downgrade
If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact our customer service team on
Question: Am I being stupid - I thought 2 Mb with 5 GB usage would be classed as upgrade vs 1 Mb unlimited usage. :/
Anyone had this problem with pipex. Anyone recommend another ISP???
