Indeed, it is *adopts Billl & Ted voice*most excellent! *guitar riff*

Yeah it worked perfectly, took a little while to laod first time but its perfect no probelms and its actually very good!

Well done NTL!

Will Langley get the Wimbledon video feeds like last year (even if they do not get the interactive stuff)?

Nope. Aparently the BBC and NTL haven't got clearance from the Secretary of State to allow the BBC to put on extra digital channels.

Don't shoot me, I'm just the messenger!

The Wimbledon interactive is very good. Let's have more;) :smokin: :wavey:

OH NO ! Here we go again! I am in Lambeth, South London, ex-CWC, Digital TV, Bromley Platform... or so I've been told......
BUT I DO NOT GET INTERACTIVE. When will people get it right? not all ex-cwc / videotron customers get interactive , CR3 or Broadband for that matter. It also looks like we are not likely to get any upgrades for a very long time.
Can someone who knows (MoneyPenny?) please list those areas in London who DO get intercative (CR3) and those who DO NOT get it?

Thanks,
The ever frustrated Rippedoff!

Wimbledon
 

"With Wimbledon 2003 about to open on Monday, June the 23rd, ntl digital customers on the Langley platform will be pleased to hear that they've drawn the short straw and have no enhanced TV functionality with multi-screen action. Langley platform customers will get to press that red button, and end up on the BBC coverage of this years event within the digital interactive service."


Doesnt this sound like someone having a laugh at their own customers????

Funny how everyone pays the same but we get differing levels of service.

Given the way NTL treated ex-CWC customers for the first year or two of ownership, and how much extra we had to pay for internet access which you did not (I was having to pay £25 pm for what you got for free), wanting to pay less just because you can't see a couple more tennis matches sounds a bit pathetic, IMO.

This is what I have been saying for some time now with regard to the situation in London, but to no avail. Maybe on the new NTHW some people might take notice!
:shrug:

I think you may be missing the point! It's not about the tennis, it's about the fact that service varies so much around the country-depending on where you are, and who the original cable co. was.
Its also about the fact that there appears to be differing levels of investment being made by the same formula. Your little dig about paying £25 pm more - can you explain? Itsounds a little pathetic to me.
:D

thats a joke, i had to wait 2 years to get NTL internet. Ended up getting broadband 2 months after i got NTL internet

i agree entirely, until NTL can offer a consistant service to everyone how cant the expect them all to pay the same?

Whilst ntl deny interactive services to exCWC, exVideotron customers it's very interesting to see the Freeview can provide interactive services for Wimbledon not bad either no multiscreen but otherwise offering a service as far as we are concerned better than anything ntl deny to its own loyal customers.

:spin:

Even worse (for CR1 people, anyway) is the fact that the Wimbledon app doesn't require a return path -- I just loaded it up while the middle light of my STB was flashing...

With regards to paying extra, NTL (and in fairness, all the other TV companies too) have always regarded interactive as something 'extra', that's thrown in for free if you're lucky enough to get it, rather than a service on its own.
