Ok, so this was in rented property then I presume?
Then it's either yours or your landlord's/landlady's responsibility.
Either way, it's not BT's responsibility-why do you feel it should be?
Because it's their equipment. [/quote]
But they left it working, so someone else has damaged it & the responsibility doesn not lie with BT (nor would it lie with ntl if it was an ntl installed property

)

But ntl would surely charge you for a new installation?

Because it's not BT's responsibility-it would be yours/landlord/landlady/property owner's responsibility.

Not really, as you are not yet paying BT for a service, so it's not the same at all!
At the end of the day, BT aren't responsible.
Fact.
End of.
