Can I dial an ntll server from anywhere (e.g. a hotel room) or does it have to be from a designated home number?
Will this be part of my existing account or will I find that ntl are setting me up a separate (paying) dial-up account?
I'd appreciate any info from anyone who has done this already.

I am not sure what you want dial-up for. You can access your email etc. and all of ntl:'s sites from any computer, anywhere, providing it can access the internet. That includes laptops used at hotels etc. although hotel charges for connecting laptops are usually extortionate!
You will not be charged any extra on top of your existing account by ntl: for accessing their services from other computers, but whoever owns the line you are using will charge you (hotels, internet cafes etc.)
Anyone else think different, or able to add anything?
