It is like whenever you buy a Train ticket. By buying the ticket and getting on the train you are agreeing to the Terms and Conditions of the train network, however you don't stand there for 1/2 an hour at the Ticket Office whilst they get read out to you. You wouldn't however, be able to claim that you didn't know they existed if you were taken to court for breaking them.

your a little confused there Ben, it is in fact the Terms and Conditions that constitute the contract clauses, to put it simply the T&Cs
are the consumer contract.
CONSUMER contracts (I.e the T&C clauses) are given extra legal protections as so called generic contracts, giving the consumer more automatic protections and rights that any other type of contract might not automaticly receave.
a simple example being the consumer Vm broadband T&C contract gets these extra considerations, however the business virgin media/NTL/TW broadband T&C contract would not, something to consider if you want more than one Cable Modem at your address and chose to take the business contract to get them offically.
any consumer T&C contract clause that is deemed unlawful,not in "good faith,as defined in legal terms", or inequitable (not equitable; unjust or unfair: an inequitable decision. )to the consumer , is an invalid contract term and so not valid or enforceable in law.
