When I got home from work this evening, I thought I would check to see how much faster unlimited is and was disappointed that the speeds were roughly the same as when I was on the value package
The BTW test shows 36 down/13 up but my account shows estimated 75 down. Screenshots attached.
The BTW test does say the following
"Your speed test has completed and the results are shown above, however during the test an error occurred while trying to retrieve additional details regarding your service. As a result we are unable to determine if the speed you received during the test is acceptable for your service. Please re-run the test if you require this additional information."
I did re-run the test but it showed the same message.
Is this just a temporary glitch? If it isn't can I revert back to value fibre since the speeds are no different (I'll just have to stay up late to take advantage of the free usage after midnight lol).
PS - wifi was off when I was performing the tests

@IvanC86 Likewise for yourself, the profile is showing at over 60Mb, if you're not seeing that please post speedtest results from the above link as well and we'll be able to advise.

Spreading it around makes diagnosis harder.

I attached a screenshot of the BT speed test to my opening post - it was showing 36 down and 13 up but didn't give any further information except an error occurred during the test and to re-do it. I did it twice last night with the same results - but I will try again tonight when I get home from work
Regards
