Phoned up the cable provider Sorry cable not available in your area, strange I said we have manhole covers with your name on it, yes but we not put any cable in, when will you be running cable? No idea nothing planned. Still no cable even though 100 yards away the houses on the main road have cable.
There is a department that deals with this at Virgin Media. It's kinda one of those things (as bad as it sounds) you will need more than yourself that would be willing to change over for them to look into it and HOPEFULLY sort it. It is expensive to lay cables and they therefore need to look at the revenue potential. You need to find out who would be wlling to take the service if it was available and contact customer services with the information.

Have you spoken to a local sales rep - they are generally pretty good at getting these issues sorted.

Do u have a tobby (little black box in the ground outside your house - maybe in the street)

Do you know of anyone in your area that has ntl?
