@Melancholie the speedtest is genuine by myself. If u don't believe me, I suggest u go somewhere else!

I'm fine, thank you.
I actually do bond 2 x FTTC lines together with a hardware solution. Take a minute and do some basic mathematics - how do you propose that 2 x 76Mb is faster than 1 x 152Mb + 1 x 76Mb? If you're hoping for it to be faster on upload there are some quite specific situations where it is of benefit, most of the time this isn't the case.
To explain I have doubts it's yours as you were 'claiming'
you were going to purchase 152Mb. Funny how 152Mb cable + 76Mb VDSL for you seems to equal dead on the speeds your mate, as mentioned by someone else on that thread you were happy to pretend it was yours and went as far as claiming it was a single line, was getting rather than the over 220Mb down you should be getting.
Strange how you posted both there and
on Overclockers (again bang on the speeds you're claiming to get here, must be a coincidence clearly that your mate's 2 services and yours run at exactly the same speeds) all excited but haven't said a word on either of them now you're apparently online.
Mightn't be lying, but the boy who cried wolf, hence I think a little suspicion is entirely appropriate and apologise if I'm wrong.
However to help:
No, Plusnet don't have a facility to discount for 2 residential lines. You would need business services to try and negotiate discounts.
Yes, they will support load balancing as they don't see anything on their side and don't know it's being done - I use 2 different ISPs and load balance between them.
If you are after 'true' bonding you will need to purchase a VPN concentrator out in the Internet and an appropriate piece of kit on your side to route all your traffic from both lines through that VPN. It is impossible to have true bonding just via a bit of software or hardware at home.
