Yes I did, as a matter of fact. I asked her if I should just keep it for collection by an NTL representative, which is admittedly a leading question, but one she could still have answered with a 'no sir, you have to post it back to us.' As the only official direction I have had from NTL is that the box should wait in my hall by the front door for someone to drop by and collect, that is exactly what I will be doing.

She said nothing about this. I will be leaving the boxes by my front door and they can come and get them if they want them. Posting an adequately-packaged STB and SACM back to NTL would cost a fortune!
It wouldn't be that bad, surely - how heavy is a box? at a guess of 5Kg from where I live in Leeds to the Manchester centre it only costs about a tenner...

If you're told you don't have any further obligation, however, that's a bit much
