Free digital tv

Being with sky it is hardly surprising that from time to time I will get junk mail from NTL offering some deal or other, but the recent offer is from no less steve stewart, MD of customer care !
My god if he had cared so much before I would not now be with sky! or BT for that matter.
Apparently, I am missing out, or so his patronising letter would suggest.
There is a big difference between cable digital tv and other digital tv! forgive me but I thought that all the tv coverage comes from the same source( s )
I can get a host of stuff that I cant get with sky! well that's a surprise, reading further he goes on about live pause, rewind, fast forward etc that you can only get with cable digital tv, I thought I could do all that with sky, and after checking, just to make sure it was not a figment, guess what? it would seem that in all his eagerness to get me back on board he has been a little economical with the truth! tut tut !
But the best part is that if I pay £11 per month including vat I can have this revolution tv plus phone line with free weekend calls!
He goes on about " on demand " where I can access stored movies, no mention of an additional payment, this can all be had for £11 including vat per month!
Ofcourse I know that it would cost more than £11 to maximise what steve is selling but how many people could be led to believe the hard sell?
And I can have all this for aslong as I keep the telephone service!
What am I waiting for?
oops almost forgot, there is a £25 installation fee for the telephone ( all the hardware is already in situ )? and the tv service, also all the cabling is in place! i would have thought just a case of plugging it all in, but there you go it will cost me £25 ( does that include vat? ) plus the £11 including vat per month.
