Cancelling NTL TV - Can anyone help
 

guys,

this might sound a really daft question and i might get some sarcastic replys but i'll ask anyway.....

if i cancel my ntl tv package (currently the base pack) will i still be able to receive channels 1-5 through the ntl box ? :Yikes:

If you cancel your tv...................they usually come and take the box away:)

But if you cancel, and they haven't taken away the box yet. I think that is what you mean?

Take your card out of your machine and see;)

if you cancel you will need to return the stb to ntl, sorry if i have misread your post!

ok cheers guys.


i have read a few forums where people have mentioned plugging the ntl cable directly into the t.v to receive channels 1-5. anyone heard of this ?:monkey:

unless of course you use the box for broadband and then you get to keep the box :)

High risk of putting lots of noise onto the network by doing this so it isn't a good idea...

If it's an analogue box they tell you to chuck it :)

Some areas have MATV where the cable is plugged straight into the back of the telly (poor reception , local authority). If the BB is running thru the box then a seperate modem is normally supplied and the box is collected....by a nice contractor like me!;)

Aren't all the connections left in place in the green cabinet as long as u keep one service?

If the job is done properly then all connections other than the working one are disconnected at the OMNI (grey box outside) or the ISO (white box inside). The green box (cabinet) feeds all services.
However, as per installations, every collector is paid per job so they may just do as little as possible ;)
