I'm not interested in "phone only" deals. I was merely stating that I was not aware that they were available.
What was the point in that?

13 July 2006 11:10:23 is the last time the page was edited so sometime around that date (certainly not after)
Edited does not mean first published though, does it, so it could've been possible for an existing customner to do as I suggested if the offer had been there since June and they gave notice in time. No?

I'm sorry but we're talking about this particular offer - not the semantics of making money. If ntl can't figure out how to make money from CATV alone then surely that's an issue for them to address, not you, I or their customer base.
Yes, they could charge for the stb and/or charge for installation. That would go down like a lead balloon in todays tight wad/want something for nothing consumer society.

The fact is that the exemptions referred to in the aforementioned offer make a nonsense of the Code of Practice. I didn't print it, ntl did, your issue (if any) is with them and their flagrant contradictory disregard for their customers evidenced in patently untrue "soundbites".
What's untrue about the offer? I'm not a customer, but if I sign up before the end of the month, I can have tv & bb for 20 quid...
