You do need to talk to them! I'd expect you to get consistently better than 2 meg.
My Essex place is 3.7km from the exchange and I get around 2.2meg (on an ADSLMax connection, so theoretically up to 8 meg available).
Up here in the wilds of rural Norfolk, I just happen (quite by chance) to be about 50m from the exchange. I get between 5 and 6 meg on ADSLmax. I've seen 7.x on occasions, but usually around 3 am.
