re infoupdate:

so I phone again this morning after being told
"it was a known local problem which was being worked
on" he told me he had 'escalated' it and to 'try it
later in the day - preferably the evening' (sound
familiar?)

Tried it today - nothing - phoned up again - there are
no problems that could be affecting it locally, I was
told

so they are sending an engineer thursday 5 till 8 pm




edit: you can bypass the 0845 number and sidestep the joys of having to pay to wait to talk to ntl by phoning the 0800 number and reporting a fault to the girls in belfast who are reasonably competant


the bloke I talked to was a completed blagger and I will post a reference number relating to his blag if neccessary. If any responsible ntl employees remain, and I very much doubt it, PM me and I will drop the guy in it - and present signed afadafids in court etc

tho I won't hold my breath
