Will NTL Turn up? Hmm
I got an appointment scheduled with NTL to install a cable modem so I don't have to go through an old STB
It's today, but there was no time set
The last time an engineer was supposed to turn up (some 2 years ago) and he never did
I wonder if the same will happen again today

I would of made a request to ask ntl to ask the engineer who is visiting to ring before he turns up.

Maybe the engineer from 2 years ago will turn up. Can you remember what the fault was?

Good luck!

Re: Will NTL Turn up? Hmm
Yep! although the pin number we had didn't work on the modem
We called up NTL, got a new one, waited about 10 minutes on the phone, tried it, no go
Called again, got a third number and it worked ok!
He actuallly turned up not 10 minutes after i'd posted this, hehe

Only spotted the last line just after I'd posted.

However, I've stuck him on my 'lucky people' list

Well there are quite a few 'lucky people' as you call them, the whole of NTL isn't bad.
