Upload Speeds

I just had my service turned on in my new apartment about 3 months ago. I went to the Comcast store to set up my service and was given the necessary hardware to take home with me.(Gateway) 
I have the 800mbps internet plan. When I test my speeds my download is usually close to the 800mbps, sometimes a bit lower, sometimes a bit higher. My upload speeds typically show between 20-23 mbps. 
However I was sent an email from Comcast Xfinity stating that my upload speeds have been increased by 75% for no additional charge, yet when I test my upload speeds they are still the same. I see no change, at all, in my upload speeds. 

I'm just wondering what is going on. Is this due to the Gateway I have not being adequate? Is it the area I'm in?

@user_eb21c6 Great to see your excitement about the recent increases to our internet speed tiers! I would be quite concerned as well seeing the update communicated to me only to not see it reflect in the actual service use and speed tests. Have you gotten a chance to power cycle/reset the modem since you received that communication?
