Well . . . . . its all about serviced for me ( ie getting value for money !)

The problems for the NTL Board as *THEY*contemplate a price hike are manyfold eg :-

1. Lack of TV channels on NTL Digital (where is VH2 for instance? missing 40 channels or so )

2. Lack of extra channels eg the free foreign ones - (BBC World Service and the German Spanish and Italian free to air satellite services)

3. Lack of any Enhanced Digital Service ( Sky_Direct customers get loads of extra stuff on Sky_News & Sky_Sports even though the signal has to travel 44,000KM in the ether ? ? ?

4. Lack of Broadband Capacity ( evidenced by threats to 'Cap' users who actually want to USE the whole service they pay for)

5. Lack of warm body response customer service - when We want the service it's Shut - when it does come ON it's too busy to take your call for 10 + mins (caused by being shut when customers want to seek help)

6. etc etc etc etc etc
