NTL availability
 
Hi people, I have a question. I live in an estate of around 500 homes, yet NTL have not yet cabled it yet. However a street 2mins walk away has ntl cabled. I was wondering if there was any particular website that shows ntl's planned rollouts for this area, or If anyone knows how to find out if I ever will get ntl. I live in Lisburn in N.Ireland, which has 90% ntl coverage, but my street is in the other 10%.:mad: At present I can only get ADSL Internet at maximum speed of 1Mb, and I would love 3Mb. Please, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Didn't NTL just sell the Ireland arm of their company? :shrug:

Probably still not much hope of a roll out though lol Do they have a current list of roll out areas or is everything on hold pending financies?

no idea to be honest

I know the london broadband upgrades have had a lot of investment recently, so i would guess that they aren't going to have money to spend on other rollouts at the moment.

Is there a number he can call for more information? I can't see that information being available via CS but maybe someone in another department might have more details of areas being financed for upgrades and installs :shrug:
