Well, NTL arrived today to install their 10mbit line. The 2 engineers just knew straight away that I wouldn't be able to have the installation.

The green box for NTL is a stones throw away from my house, and the house wiring finishes 2 houses away! You can imagine how dissapointed I am.

I already have 8mb ADSL which gives me about 1800kbit for Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£30 a month.

The engineer told me that he has been to my road several times already with the bad news that those left on the end of the road won't be able to have their installation.

Is there anything I can do to persuade NTL to complete the house wiring another 20 metres or better yet to complete it for the end of the road to 15 or so houses? I'm not the only one who would buy their services.

Yours,
Steve.
