Exactly, that was my point; you need to read the small print in the adverts. I've just checked the ntl site.

Normal point size: "UNLIMITED calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in the UK"

Much smaller point size: "Redial after 60 minutes to avoid call charges."

That is a straightforward contradiction. One of those 2 statements is simply untrue. How, even twisting the meaning well beyond breaking point, can ' Redial after 60 minutes' be compatible with 'UNLIMITED calls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week'.

I defy anyone to convince me that a call can be unlimited if you have to stop after one hour, that is break off the call, and redial.

To normal human beings, unlimited means without a limit. To ntl it means 'with a break every hour.'
