I think in your case sir the saddest part about this whole affair is how much you seem to be enjoying it. You describe yourself on another site as a self-appointed advisor to ntl meanwhile you seem to be on a bit of an ego-trip as far as this matter goes. I remember mentioning to you that you can now take ADSL in another thread, and why aren't you voting with your pocket as you through anticap advised so many others to do? As I remember no response? You even went as far as bemoaning the lower upstream on ntl's 600k service. BT can get you a phoneline in straight away if the point is already there, you can have adsl within 2 weeks. Or does that mean you can't bemoan ntl if you leave, and there goes a big recreational activity.

Just the vibe I think everyone is getting from the language you've used. One of oneupsmanship rather than anything else. Though you should be used to that, enough people joined then ran away from anticap thanks to your ranting, most of them like myself employees willing to have constructive conversation, but a couple of ranty posts from yourself soon ended that trend.

Maybe ntl will get fined lots then we'll see headline 'ntl to cut jobs in Wythenshawe following ASA / FAST / Trading Standards fine - then you'll see how what you do affects real people, especially if they are up in your neck of the woods, and maybe it'll wipe that smug smile off your face.

StuartW:





OK so if you got convicted of theft you'd see fit to sue HMG for loss of pay? You got caught, suspended, and you want ntl to reimburse you for cutting you off. Frankly you are lucky you were put back on at all, let alone the fact what you did was illegal and carries a prison sentence if they'd wanted to take it that far.

For what it's worth I absolutely agree, the advert is completely out of order, and someone in that business unit does deserve a bit of a slapping for it. Just the way certain people are going about this is damn childish, bordering on pathetic.
Hope everyone can see the way you get treated by NTL employees when they can not come out with a sensible argument they go to personal attacks must be the call centre training.

For everyones info, when trying to cancel the service, was offered the service at a rate that made ADSL look expensive.

This point has been made by myself many times you can not cancel because you end up in an auction with the retention team

So who is just anothernoob trying to kid
