Slow connection + Ping, but sync speed fine

Basically, my broadband speed has dropped from 6-odd mbit to 3.5mbit, while ping times to google have risen from around 30-40ms up to 600ms at times, but usually around 300-400ms
I've tried a different router with no change. The ADSL line stats show a solid 8128/448kbs link (as usual) with a solid noise margin.
Here's the results of a number speedtests I have performed recently
BT Wholesale speed test (basic)
Download speed (Mbps): 3.54
Upload speed (Mbps): 0.16
Ping latency(ms): 277
BT Wholesale speed (advanced)
Download speedachieved during the test was - 3.54 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 0.6 Mbps-7.15 Mbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :8.13 Mbps(DOWN-STREAM), 0.45 Mbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 7.15 Mbps
Plusnet esitmated line speed:
Estimated line speed:
8Mb (Download speed could vary depending on line conditions. Estimates are the maximum speeds that your phone line can support. These speeds are dependent on the package you choose.) - Checked on 2015-01-22 09:33:59
Current line speed:
7.15 Mb
This has come on the last few days. I have ordered a fibre upgrade if that's in any way connected
Any ideas anyone?

I'll re-check my pings off-peak to compare

I'll re-check during peak time tonight but it certainly seems like a contention/congestion issue somewhere.

I've also noticed it in the last week or so. Sounds like a very similar issue, both on 20CN

As an aside, pings to google this morning (8am) were around 20-30ms, so it seems to be a contention/peak time issue.

This is definitely an error/fault condition now. I will re-check in the morning to show the difference in latency
