If you move from a serviced area, to a non-serviced area, then they'll break the contract without penalty for you. I know that because I asked them personally, as it was an issue I had when signing up.
The same applies to moving to a serviceable address, where the landlord won't allow NTL to install. They'll break the contract, penalty-free. I have just got that direct from an NTL employee I happened to be speaking to (as you do). There is also a department in NTL which is there to resolve installation issues between landlords and customers if you want NTL, and he won't allow it.
I think they only time they won't let you break out of a contract is if the address is pre-wired and ready to go, as you have no excuse really.
HTH.
