This must be a proftable price because it lasts for a year, if it isnt NTL have made a very dumb move because they are then paying a customer to use their service for the entire length of the minimum term of the contract.
Do you honestly think that giving a new customer free installation and 1Mb broadband for a year for £9.99 per month generates a profit for NTL? You obviously have little concept of marketing if you do.
