Free set up - no fee
Unlimited Download Limit per month
2MB Broadband (guaranteed)

They are not openly advertising this offer as it could lose them a lot of money but if you ring up threatening to cancel then they can offer this package!

Why would tv be in that package? It's to match talk talks, and they're not offering it. :shrug:

It was more a question of can TV be added to that package ;) ie, Base pack is £11/m + £10.50 phone, so can you get the Base pack & above package for £31.99?

Similar price as 3 for 33, but this package includes 2Mb BB & TUL24!

There's no way that even ntl would offer 2Mb BB as "guaranteed".

Hmmm-I'm sure someone made that point earlier, who was it?

Was it Orangebird? ;)

Maybe because Ntl force you to have their phone line if you want to take TV service from them
- or has this changed now? :erm:

it's likely to be a 'rententions' deal - ie. straight calls to customer services wont get you it but if you ask to cancel you will be transferred to the department of 'nice people'. aka retentions aka cancellations

Hmm, that must explain why they bent over backwards to sort out my 9-month-long problem in five minutes as soon as I mentioned the "c-word"...!
