    Hello, I recently ordered a UPC package in Dublin of 3Mb broadband (Value pack) with digital+HD. Checked the UPC website and they no longer offer the 3Mb pack, its now 5Mb fibre power for same price.
    Anyone know if the 3Mb peeps will be upgraded to the 5Mb automatically or not?

    Wouldn't surprise me if you had to give them money to do it the scabby c**ts.
    Thanks all

    You will be upgraded automatically in March, if you want it done sooner fill out this form http://www.upc.ie/fasterbroadband.

    However a lot of people are having problems after being upgraded not even getting the speeds they had before the upgrades have a look at this thread

    that's up to you, but dragging up a 6 month old thread to ask instead of starting a new one is generally considered bad form on forums. ;)

    no, you shouldn't drag up old threads, but yes you should get UPC broadband if it's available to you.
