Live a little Krony ;)

Thats bound to happen, but an irrate phone call back to them will show then the error of their ways and they will just think they have screwed up the billing.

If they phone up an say i cant have the xbox as i already have bb, i'll tell them not to cancel the engineers appointment as he can either deliver the xbox or collect their equipment. NTL's choice :D

Re: Free xbox offer?

i am just waiting for them to ring me up as well , if an existing customer cant have the xbox then why does it let you go for it , i would have thought that they would have locked existing customers out of it :confused:

I've developed a number of string a sellotape type systems like this for marketing. All they want is to generate interest and dont care about the validation. (ie get it out quick and never mind the quality oooeeerrrr)

If they lose a few x-box's to existing customers its probably not a concern when balanced up with the extra development cost for the validation (well thats what im hoping). We will see!!
