Phoned NTL yesterday around 3pm and added the Sky Sports package to my existing basic package.
The operator advised it would take 24 hours. When I questioned this, having had Setanta Sports added instantly before when I insisted or wouldn't proceed, he said it would more than likely be a couple of hours.
Checked this morning and nothing. Phoned again and was told they couldn't check as there was a problem with their Glasgow location but to reset the box and keep checking.
Nearly 8pm and nothing.
I'm probably right in thinking they are closed on a Sunday and I'll now miss the big Premiership matches tomorrow.
