But in regards to my question, does migrating to a slower product reset DLM and so remove the banding? I am going from LLU to BTW.

the answer is yes sometimes.

It used to be the understanding was it would do a full dlm reset, now we have seen instances where banding has not been removed and the emergence of a "soft" dlm reset which doesnt remove banding.

Thanks for the information. Let's hope I get lucky

Changing product with the same ISP on the same DLM profile will NOT remove banding.

You can only be sure banding will be removed with a change in DLM profile, a change of ISP, or a manual reset by an OpenReach engineer.

I am almost 100% certain that for your case, as described above, the circuit will be set to a "wide open profile" with the DLM process beginning to monitor it from the second day after the migration.

Thanks all. It will be interesting to see how the line performs as I've never actually had it unbanded since I had a fault some months ago. Before that it was stable at around 52Mbps.

I'm not switching until the 6th July so quite some time yet.

Well due to TalkTalk's cock-up and BT's lack of communication, I am having to get a new line installed as TalkTalk aren't releasing my number.

At least the DLM will be "reset". I will be curious to see how the two lines compare as there will be a bit of overlap.

It happened to me when moving from EE to Vodafone my telephone number was changed but after 3 days it then returned back to the original number, just give your gaining ISP/voice a call to say you want to keep your old telephone number.

That's what BT is doing but they've said TalkTalk keep it for 14 days (from CEO's team).

TT maybe thinking you will return back to using their service before the 14 day cooling off period ends or something like that but TBH it's a bit harsh though ISP's will try any trick in book to keep you as their customer.
