The trick with this system is to ensure that the customer is aware of how it works, and can understand the value of the extra 2 minutes talking to the "receptionist"

Hey... why can't NTL have the person who answers the phone tell me there's an outage and it is being worked on? That would make them useful or something.
(In case there's anyone who hasn't guessed yet I am very very very unhappy with the service I've had from NTL in the past, though I must concede things have gotten better in recent years).
