Re: June Price Rises?
 

Ah but I'm someone who has cable because I hate BT.I would never go back to them.The final straw was when the line went down when I was in labour and had to go and knock up a neighbour in the early hours to use their cable connection because BT was down for everyone in the street.In all the time I've had cable through Nynex and C&W and now NTL I've had no trouble like that I had with BT.I would have had the cable phone without DTV if I could and I knew lots of people who also wanted it without the strings.

I personally have had no problems with the cable phone in all the time I've been using the service EXCEPT for the issue of 24/7,dial-up isp's that were not compatible with cable :rolleyes: but of course that was solved with BB.

Now normal service is resumed or in other words back on topic.

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Neil just a rough "guess" how bad is it for us the loyal customers paying their NTL bills???

is it looking like price rises like hell??? if so then I might just have reasons to leave NTL and look for another provider

Re: June Price Rises?
 

perhaps the latest info is broadband is also going up!

Re: June Price Rises?
 

nope ;)

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Ok-I'm still having this verified by various peeps, so please don't come back & shoot/flame etc me if it's not correct/false etc. :erm:

Now I'm not quite sure what that "infamous £32.99 deal" actually is, but as I said-I still having this checked out, but I thought I'd share what I had with you anyway. :)

Like I said-it's not gospel yet & may even be fake, but I do trust the source.

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Neil you gotta be kidding me....10 quid charge if you want to lower your account...

hope this is just a april fools of NTL cuz telephone going up again.. I hate this as I dont use the phone would gladly just ditch the phone and keep the dtv of NTL but that aint going to happen :(

Re: June Price Rises?
 

I did say that this was still being verified.....

I think that when Mick spoke to ntl they said to him on the phone a few weeks back that they were dropping that lowering charge, but that's the same ntl that in Jan gave out a customer charter with the CS number listed as 0800 052 2000, then 6 or 7 weeks later promply changed their minds & went to 0845/0870 contact numbers. :nono:

They really cannot be trusted IMO.

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Hehehehe it's gone from £4 to £0 and zoooooooomed up to £10!

Won't be effecting me anyway! :D

I've ditched NTL and will never use them again, in my opinion they are now one of the most expensive providers around with the worst CS department I have ever had to use! :td:

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Neil, quickie here.... why is NTL so hell bent at trying to lose their customers of late....

1. charging for changes to your account
2. charges for calling them when their service has gone down or they made a mistake.
3. never giving any real answers or updates on whats happening on their network (thankfully I'm 1 of the lucky few that has got a 10mb connection)
4. no firm date on anything really.

ow well we choose to use NTL :erm:

Re: June Price Rises?
 

the £32.99 deal could be that 3 for £33 deal

Re: June Price Rises?
 

The one that is currently being advertised on Channel NTL for existing customers :)

Re: June Price Rises?
 

Well i'll be cancelling the tv/phone and just keep the 2meg b/b

Having sky in so not losing anything there and phone wise got a good contract phone so not losing there either.

Looks like ntl are going to lose customers due to them having a good share in the market,
starting to get greedy i think.

Re: June Price Rises?
 

So I assume the procedure for downgrading is now something like this :)

1 - Ring up ntl
2 - Ask to downgrade package
3 - Informed £10 fee
4 - Ask for retentions cancelling services.
5 - Tell retentions reason for cancelling.
6 - Downgrade complete free of charge and if lucky freebie thrown in.
7 - Ntl still profited as the retentions addition to call added to call revenue.

Re: June Price Rises?
 

This is may be why the prices are going up as there are people always after "freebies"
