Since when has Sussex, Wessex and Solent been in the northwest? Kind of gives it away with the Solent bit.

I would say these are ex-ntl as I don't deal with them and I'm ex-telewest regions.

if youd taken the time to read the post you would have noticed that my first reply was area 20 is NW,then,if you could have been bothered,you would have noticed that it says 'ive just checked',then go on to name the other areas that id found were 'area 20'.i do not need telling what is where in relation to towns/cities/counties in britain thank you very much!! :rolleyes:

It seems Nynex/Videotron/Cable & Wireless skimped a bit on costs!

Unfortunately it would now cost too much to upgrade the equipment compared with the revenue it would generate

It's not the exchanges that are the problem (Nynex used SystemX, same as BT) it's the kit in the street that is not upgradeable (well it is but as you said, too expensive to do & by now well & truly obsolete!).

You contradict yourself twice. You use little or no punctuation. And also purely because you associate NW with franchise 20 , along with Sussex, Solent, Wessex... Together they are a mix, yes. Though NW is telewest as such, and the rest are ntl.

Forget it., both ways.
