If you think that NTL will not move jobs to India because of the cost of calls from there to the UK then surely the same principle would apply to NTL Freedom having call centres there. Why did they do this if it is more costly than using call centres based on their own network?

As said in the above post, freedom is off net, and therefore involves making calls to people who are not within the ntl network. So, as far as the company is concerned it makes sense (an no I am not condoning it) to use where is cheaper. I am saying for On-net, I.e people in the ntl cabled areas it is more cost effecive to call from this country, when calling off-net is is more cost effective to call from india.
My manager is the person dealin with recruitment and we are genuinley taking on anoth 40+ staff, it is not a gimmick. The staff in other sales teams (I am being specific as that is what I was talking about), in other areas were offered the chance to move here, however I can understand them declining to move 200+ miles from some areas to come here.
