Re: ntl:Telewest Business to be rebranded.
They've been labelling themselves as "part of the VM group" for a bit now.. So no suprise..
I wonder if that means a more closer link between residential packages and business packages as currently the business side only offers 4M/500K, 10M/700K and 20M/1M though they have dropped the 4Mb for thier new combined BBB/Bphone packages with free calls 24/7
Weird though how it's not on the mail website

I'd expect they will sort the packages out to be more competive in the business sector.

I wouldn't hold your breath. Business cable modems really aren't a major seller for that business unit just an addition to the core leased line / telco business.

Re: ntl:Telewest Business to be rebranded.
Indeed, I will have to get used to answering the phone with Virginmedia Business instead of NTL:Telewest

Re: ntl:Telewest Business rebranded

https://memberservices.ntlbusiness.com/ and not even linked to it from the logins page

Re: ntl:Telewest Business rebranded
Just got through the post a glossy cardboard GOODBYE from ntl/tw/bus which when opened up is a HELLO from vmb. Surely a much cheaper letter would have done exactly the same job...
Interesting though that it's signed by Mr RB (well a printed signature) himself
