Oh that's helpful, thank you.

I don't actually really want NTL broadband but I thought it was the only option really since I have an NTl phoneline. Then I discovered that it was actually not an option, so therefore I had zero options... hmm.

In terms of installing a BT phoneline - I'm a little confused about my options here.... basically I live in a large block of apartments, pretty newly converted, the whole block is on NTL - all 12 floors.

How easy would it be to get a BT phoneline put in? It seems to me like I'd be creating a lot of work for BT, to get a phoneline installed on the 8th floor. Not that I'm averse to the idea of giving them something to do, but my other concern is - am I even allowed to do this in such a building? they're presumably going to need to get access to a lot of communal areas and I just don't know if this would be possible.... Or maybe they could use the current NTL lines? I don't know much about these things....

I realise that this is probably the wrong forum for this but any help much appreciated - thanks!
