Here's the proof of throttling - Once I vpn out of the vodafone throttling wall twitch is working perfect at full video source.
PROOF of throttling - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWqlPPGcv6Q
It looks like throttling is around between 3.8 - 4 - once I hit up onto the vpn you will notice i'm up at around 10 and playback is perfect
There's too many other customers on here reporting the exact same issue for it to be a problem our side - I've tested multiple routers etc to rule that out - I created this new thread because now we can see it really is a vodafone problem.
this is my speed
Can you give an estimation when this will be changed back?

Well this is just great...
My single has been around 14 Mbps all ##~## day... No buffering at 1080/60 though.
Been getting 60+ all week, yet now it's back to crappy speeds. It's ALWAYS the same crap with Vodafail.
IF ANYONE HAPPENS TO READ WHO'RE THINKING ABOUT JOINING VODAFONE D O N T

It's always the same with Vodafail really...
It's 2am and im getting full speed lol... Sure "peak" time might lower your speed somewhat, but going from 60Mbps to under 10Mbps at peak times is a joke and shouldn't be allowed.
If we wanted slow crap speeds, we'd pay for crap slow speeds... But we're paying for high speeds, so give us the speed we're paying for.

Those last results taken between 7 and 7:55 pm yesterday.
Fast.com went up and down on 5 or 6 tests only 30 seconds to a minute apart.
So left it for a while and it did it again on the next 5 or 6 tests.

Has the fix been implemented yet? My throughput is still terrible. I also spoke to a few people at work today (South Yorskshire) that have Vodafone Fibre, both said the same, netflix is unwatchable and buffering all the time on IPTV, but that was last night.

Not every node which is by area has been done yet, not enough information to know how many is left or what has been done. Think there is another couple of nodes which you could be on one. It's a waiting game for you at the moment until they say its completed.

Tonight is the night for the last fix

Come tomorrow the "few people" affected by this issue hopefully it will not be the following
"It's all gone Pete Tong"
20-03-2019 06:58 AM
Vodafone Bracknell Multi 55Mbps Single 45Mbps
Fast net.com 50Mbps
think Broadband 50Mbps
No Buffering twitch tv at 10.80p
Quick test via Wi-Fi on tablet
East Devon Exmouth Exchange
So Big Improvement
Hope it holds and the rest of you got the fix last night
