10Mb upload speed (estimated)"
I'm about to take the plunge to fibre and was wondering (having seen a lot of worrying forum threads and posts) if anyone gets the advertised speeds?
What can I realistically expect?

If you can get 80 down, then Id expect more than 10 up to be possible.

My estimate from BTw was "up to 62.6" and "up to 20"
