Cust - Right, OK then.
CS - Sorry sir, but I really don't think you understood a word I said. I explain it to you again until I'm satisfied that you understand, ok?

Well, you're example actually conveys no useful information. So, to answer your question, perhaps conveying useful information would perhaps be a start. If that is how the cap is explained to new customers then it is pushing the fringe of what I would consider an acceptable definition of "explaining".

Besides, this doesn`t address the key point that I originally raised. Staff at NTL are assuming that customers accept the cap and then using that as a basis to berate customers who don`t accept the cap. The first half of that equation is not demonstrably true, so extrapolating any conclusions regarding other customer's opinions of the cap is invalid.
