Again - what reasons do you have in mind for ntl wanting to 'string you along'? You think it was just for kicks or something??
I'm not defending them, but I do believe that when ntl first starting promising services, they truly thought they could deliver. They haven't been able to and I know it's frustrating (I can't get either ntl bb or adsl where I live), but it beggars belief that anyone thinks ntl were doing it deliberately to cheese potential customers off

I have to agree with OB here. Although NTL have been done by the ASA for advertising services they are not capable of providing (and to be honest, I think NTL should have worked out where they can provide BB before they planned the advertisement campaign), they have nothing to gain by not providing this service.
In fact, they are losing at least £18 a month for each interested subscriber. That could be a lot of money. NTL know this, so I don't see what they gain by "stringing people along". It's almost like the "conspiracy theory" that went around a while back on .com.
