But I'm just trying to get my head around it

96.79% of 68773 is 66565, which is then rounded down to the nearest 0.2Mb, giving 66.4Mb.

Try reading this - http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/IPprofile.htm#IP_profile_calculated
This will always be true: SYNCH speed > Profile speed > data transfer speed
In the case of FTTC, observation suggest that the profile is 96.8% of synch speed - in which case the figures you quote above are correct.  The above page also explains why the profile is lower than the synch speed.

In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links
