How about this for a comparison:

2Meg ADSL for £37.49 a month.
I'm off. Final straw really. Going to downgrade BB tomorrow to 600k. Sports channels will be going after the weekend footie games and I will be booking Mr Sky, Mr BT and Mr Reasonably-priced-ADSL-provider to come and replenish my services when I quit NTL. Hopefully I also won't have to pay the £20 month for access to working newsgroup servers, which should be a standard thing with any decent ISP. Looks like my 4 year wait for a working red button will be fulfilled, but not by the company I thought would do it!
