to the site.

For starters, is there anything about your current service you don't like?

My 2p ... I have Sky/BT/Virgin Broadband since I moved off-net, but if I could get NTL where I am now, I would be back like a shot. Cable broadband is way better than ADSL (especially if you have distance-from-exchange issues), NTL's EPG is better than Sky's in almost every respect (the one annoyance is the restriction on the number of days ahead NTL can display) and as for the phone ... well, it's a phone. I'm not a heavy user, so all the tariffs and providers are as good as each other so far as I'm concerned!

Sky may beguile you with the sheer number of channels they claim to provide, but don't be fooled, the overwhelming majority of them are appalling cr@p that I promise you will never watch, ever, ever.
