There is no such thing as an hire agreement associated with the equipment that ntl provides.

What is your comment on that?

What is cheaper for Ntl? Dragging you through the courts to get a minimum payment off for the rest of the year off you or disconnection?



Anything posted on here without proof of where it came from is suspect. If I knocked something up in Word stating that Tony Blair eats children and posted it would you believe that too?



Again what is cheaper for Ntl?

To be perfectly honest I'm sure they were glad to see the back of you if this is the way you acting in your dealings with them.

But when somebody I know has issues with NTL i will give them a copy of the info and advise them to have a talk to trading standards or the cab.
Not telling you or anyone the source does not mean a thing.

But you obviously do not believe it so it doesnt matter, your opinion is so dogged anyway.

How do you know what my opinion on anything is? :dunce:
