OK, yes, BBKing has indeed in earlier posts, if you look back, that some cabling had to be replaced, not much it seems, and green boxes needed attention. Dizzy's responses have also been quite enlightening in regard to what is going on.
Why hasn't BB been extended to areas like this? The answer NTL executive level incompetence. We also have long memories, as CWC customers we expected the free service of ntlworld would be extended to us. We waited ages for this service and we were fobbed off with all sorts of reasons why we couldn't have it. Eventually, of course the service was extended. with no explanation for the long delay, and after the fiasco with the CD installation disks we had about six weeks of free use until NTL slapped the monthly charge on it. Frankly, I believe NTL is appallingly managed at senior levels, it's just an old boys club and customers concerns are not a priority. We are informed by Dizzy that all Videotron areas are on the list, certainly, I accept the need for upgrading parts of the network, even though it doesn't bother me anymore.
My point is that we are told so often that Videotron cabling was poor and yet suddenly here we are reading that Videotron areas are now receiving BB.
