Good new story: successful upgrade to Fibre Unlimited

I was on the old Plusnet Premier Broadband (option 1), but was grandfathered in to FTTC from the trials. I used the online change my product wizard and had an upgrade to Fibre Unlimited set to occur on my billing date (18th Jan).
This morning, woke up to the following speeds:
