Why do this to me
Hello, I received a letter from virginmedia today offering " http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s...4/SDC19397.jpg " but when i goto www.virginmedia.com to place my order for 50mb it's saying " National service Only " yet im still sent emails and letters offering there digital service, Also there is a pub down the road from me that can get there services and a football club in the middle of a field that can get there services and there less than 30meters from my road. Can you check postcode UB4 8DD

Re: Why do this to me
These letters are dropped by the royal mail to every home within their delivery area, this can also affect non-cabled homes. Its an unfortunate side effect of letting the royal mail provide a maildrop advertising service.
P.S. your home is quite far from the access network, the closest services are business connections. There would be substantial costs required to get cable to your home.
