In reality I think it was too much for the people they employ to understand that a NTL number was comming back to NTL.......they probably do not get the training to address something like this, because it is such a rarety when it happens

I fully understand the notice period, yes. Your number will have been released for porting. If you then do a reversal, the number that has been released then has to be released back from the subscribed to provider, who you then gave notice to in order to make this happen.
Looking at the timescale in your earlier post, all this occurred leading up to, and including the 4 day Easter 2 Bank Holiday weekend. A standard number port takes 10 days - an aborted one to revert back would take 20, add on the 4 day weekend - hopefully that explains things, and now you are a customer again, this will make it better.
