Your upload is currently capped at 448kbps. You need to ask for it to be uncapped.

Hi cpcjones,
I agree with jelv that your upload speed is capped, as I am in an identical situation, having move to Plusnet Broadband Unlimited last Monday.
I have raised a ticket to get the upload cap removed (76502007). However, that was 80+ hours ago and the ticket has not been responded to as yet. You may get a better response time to any ticket you raise after the weekend.

Raise the ticket straight away - there's no point in delaying.

@cpcjones, your order's been placed and should complete tomorrow.
@burrowsp, I believe Adam's picked up one of your other posts on this issue and addressed it already.
