Ok since everyone here is going to claim ntl are ripping people off and have illegal contracts, why don't you all take this up with BT as well:

So, is BT also issuing contracts that don't meet with the approval of the barrack room lawyers? Or is everyone just plain
wrong?
The law does NOT compel companies to spen hundreds (and in BT's case, potentially thousands) of pounds providing a service so that the customer can change their mind on a whim the next day. Consumer laws are NOT in existence solely to protect customers from dishonest companies...they also protect companies from dishonest customers.
BT, Sky, ntl, Telewest, and loads of other firms all have contracts like this, and damn right they should.
There are far more instances of customers ripping companies off than vice versa. A shame Watchdog never features any of them.
