Re: Will NTL Pull out of LE3 Leics in next 5 years?

The rep told her the only reason he could think of that she cannot have broadband is that another provider has a dominence in her area. Now BT have enabled all exchanges for ADSL in Leics years ago and it is fair to say LE3 has a lot of sky customers, my sister herself has sky digi in her living room and analogue ntl in her kids rooms and she also has a ntl phoneline. She is in a perculiar position of been out of range for ADSL and she doesnt want to have a BT phoneline.
So NTL seem unfussed that they dont have broadband in her area (according to that rep) and LE3 has no digital tv, with analogue tv signals been disabled over the next few years will NTL pullout, or have they got alternate plans such as BB and TV over ADSL2 platform? Would be very interesting to know.

Can you just clarify for me at least, does LE3 have any NTL service at all? is there an analogue service there at moment and are you wondering when they will upgrade for Digital and BB?
