what you fail to realise is that £27.50 + the layout for "activation" £29.38 means for the 1st year you pay £29.94 per month with the cost spread for the activation, which doesnt imply thats the DSL installation fee for BT, now... im no genious, but there T+C also allow them to put in a cap, whos to say you wont get a cap put in, in 3 months when they can maximise cashflow?
ALSO! there 1mb/2mb cheap service is on a 50:1 contention ratio, which means youll be lucky to get 600k down at peak times, and probably the rest of the time too, seeing as NTL has a 20:1 contention, if you were to compair EQUALLY, youd have to get the £40 a month connection which works out as £42.45 a month, so before you jump on the OMG! a better connection than NTL for less, its not! and dont forget to include all the fees of getting your BT line back up and running, and DSL installed, activation might not be line upgrading, but just "heres your username, give me £30".
so to recap, NTL's 1mbit is 20:1 contention for £34.99 a month, free installation, fast24 is 50:1 contention for £29.94 a month, or for equal footing, 20:1 is £42.45 a month... great savings!
