Hi,

I was an NTL customer a few years back and they were cack. I'm under no mis-comprehension that they will be any better, but I just wanted to confirm a pricing option, and see what people think?

I'm just about to move house. I NNEEEEEEEEDD BB ASAP when I move into my new home. NTL can get an engineering our on Monday! (Compared to Bt's 29th Dec).

NTL seem to be offering free installation,
Half price BB for the first 3 months,
Free phone line for a year!!!

This seems almost too good to be true! Is it?

Is the free phone line, a version of the 3-2-1 calling plan but with a cost of ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£0, so all I pay is the call costs?

What happens if I leave before the year is up?

** I also noticed that there is an attenuator on the back of the cable modem. Does this indicate that there is a problem with the connection? Or could this be because I'm in a flat? **

Thanks.
