NTL wouldn't give the discounts if they couldn't afford it, i'm sure even they aren't that silly.

And yeah, as Fingy says, they are only open Mon-Fri!
They can afford it. They just cut the amount they spend on "luxuries" they don't need, such as Engineers, other staff and network upgrades. Simple. Don't believe me? Look at some of the posts by Escapee, and others. It's also simple economics. If they cut someone's prices by £20 a month, then that's £20 a month they don't have for upgrades.

As I have said in the past, I really don't think NTL should be giving reduced prices to those who threaten to leave. I personally would rather they spent that money on improving the network (and their support services) so that people are not tempted to leave anyway.
