I was not rude to CS. I just stated that it was unacceptable and that I was prepared to lower my package from nearly £60pm to the £10pm basic package, if I remained a NTL customer. I wonder what would happen if everyone was to tell NTL that they are prepared to just have the £10 package until the service improves?



In my original post I did ask whether I have gone the right way about this or should have I said something else. As by my number of posts you can see Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢m a new member to this forum, do some of you always welcome new members with such hostile comments? The next time your cab arrives late or your new washing machine, TV or whatever arrives later than you expected. I hope you remember me sitting at home watching TV with both my middle fingers pointing up you.



To others, thanks for all your support.
What I found incomphrensible was that you were not able to wait for more than an hour to see if it adjusted before getting on to CS/Tech support when experience has taught me that a short wait usually sorts things out.I'm also curious to know what would have been an acceptable period of time to you to wait for an engineer.An hour,a day,two days?Even the fastest service can't go much faster than a day surely?After all we are dealing with NTL here and I very much doubt if any of the other DTV suppliers would have been any quicker.

I also DON'T like the way you keep needling everyone as though we are idiots because we seem have rather more realistic ideas of how the real world operates.I'd be interested in any service that can operate in under a day when there is a technical problem but I suspect that ALL(and frankly there's not that much choice) of them will be having problems to provide any service that is faster in the present economic situation.

So when are you leaving NTL and who will you try next?Because that is the real problem.Which of the very small list of DTV suppliers is the most reliable and fixes problems instantly?If we could all know that I'm sure we would all be signed up to them.
