This is Zen's 8Mb service:



Or to be more accurate Up to 8Mb service.

Sometimes I think Trading Standards should look at some of these claims.

I just wondered whether you'd tried clicking on a different "pyramid" in Speedtest.Net Flopps? When I tried the test, I found that the closest one to me (Maidenhead, just 50 ml and with a ping of 58) gave poor-ish results. When I tried Limerick, however, (300 miles and a ping of 74) the results were really good on my up-to 8 Mb connection ;)

See what I mean?

No - and in fact, it was Barcelona which gave me an even better download speed than the ones above :lol:
