Hi there
When telecom announced their Big Time broadband plan didn't they also anounce that they were goin to uncap Go plan upload speeds. My parents are on this plan and have not currently seen any changes? Also on their website they still advertise that plan as being capped. Any info??
Thanks

I believe they said that this process would happen over several weeks during July, so one would guess it hasn't happened to them yet?

Go Large and Big Time are practically the same "plan" with the exception Go Large is 128k upload, Big Time is FS upload and $10 more a month.

It's extremely unlikely they will give Go Large users FS upload without increasing the price by $10/month to match Big Time.

No one appears to be certain how long they will continue to operate Go Large.

The change is starting mid July and will take several weeks (as mentioned by kingjj above) ... so should be finished mid August at a guess
