Yes, that's always been possible.

I meant about you pointing out you didn't know about phone line only. Never mind.

I'm aware of the difference between "edited" and "published".

Oh good.

Yes possibly some may ineed have. However, in the context of this thread (started yesterday) any advice given with regards to cancellation is irrelevant given the 30 day notice period and the expiry of the offer. We cannot determine when it first appeared without someone from NTL confirming the date.

So, are you here to give advice or demonstrate what a real pedant is?

Again, that's NTL's perogative. If they want to incorporate a loss leader service as part of the backbone of their business model that's entirely up to them.
|
It's not their prerogative though, is it? If they started charging, customers would be off elsewhere. Business isn't that black and white when it's as competitive as it is now.

There's nothing untrue about the offer. There is, however something unfair about the offer exemptions which makes their assertion "ntlâ₠¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s aim is to give those who subscribe to its services customer-focussed attention and a fair deal in the provision of quality communications" untrue.

In your opinion I suppose.

Yes, because you're not currently an existing customer, nor are you restricted (at this juncture) by a 30 day cancellation period.
Quite simple.

I know it is. You're the one that sems hell bent on pulling things apart and examining them for no apparent or conclusive reason.
