I'm under the impression the general consensus is some areas of london dont have bb, and dont hold your breath getting it.
I know this angers some, but if you demand british airways fly a jumbo to timbuctoo 3 times a week, they are gonna say no - why? because its not economically viable for them to do so. The same applies to ntl im sure.

So you think it is "not economically viable" for NTL to offer BB in the capital of the UK. The ex-videotron areas account for around 1 million homes - although not all of these would have taken cable. This is still a very large potential market.

BT take the opposite view and that is why the London exchanges are pretty much the first to be upgraded.
