Angry Re: Price increase

The prices don't increase until june FFS.

You will get a leafelt with your May's bill, you do need to give 30 days notice to cancel.

Not sure what good it would do if you did work in contract law they are not breaking anything, as you will get your notice and they will let you cancel giving 30 days notice. Not sure what the problem is

Sorry to be picky but I don't know of any ntl employee on the base digital package, as they get the Family Pack for nothing :pp

That isn't picky at all. I've clearly made a mistake, thanks for correcting me. Looks like no one needs the base pack - maybe it will just be for people who's houses are surrounded by mountains and skyscrapers.

yes 30 days to cancel but to move down to 600K you can do it instantly as long as you have had the service for over 30 days

Re: Price increase

Just thought I'd mention that the cable modem speed migration page:
http://www.ntlworld.com/data-feeds/e...tierMigration/

..still shows £35 for 1MBit - if they try to charge me £38 I'll say "hell no! It showed £35 when I upgraded!!!"

Actually our bill will have part of May and June on it so they will attempt to charge us more for the June part, which they cannot do, from the 1st of June then (sorry to have made the mistake but you can shove your FFS), which will be less than 30 days notice to us - and last time there was a price increase we got no leaflet stating this, it was just a shock on the bill

It will show £35 because the price doesn't go up yet. It should show the current price until the new price actually takes effect but it would be a help if they also put a statement about the price increase along side.

If everyone on 1mb phoned on the last day of may 1st June to downgrade to 600 K wonder what they would do.. I am as I know they have worked 1mb out of my price range.
