its called subsidising, people who dont use the phone are subsidising other parts of the service. NTL could have allowed a tv no phone package but it would be charged more then the £11 you quoted.
They could perhaps do something like this.
Base TV £13.50 a month install fee £50 min contract 12 months.
or
Base + Phone £21.50 a month free install min contract 12 months.
