An old old argument that's completely wrong I'm afraid.
It's the BILL that is late. For all it matters legally, the services could relate to 12 months time.
As an example, if you take out a 12 month subscription to a magazine, you can't withhold payments on the grounds that you haven't yet received all the magazines.
An ntl bill is technically an invoice due under the terms and conditions the customer agreed to when they joined. Any customer who does not accept those terms and conditions should cancel their services, rather than try and get them changed to suit themselves.
