They too gave me a hard time. However i have never had to wait 3-4 weeks for a engineer to fix anything else. only $ky win that award.
I waited 2 weeks once for a Telewest *Ahem* engineer to attend my house and fix my phone line once. He went to the street cab and it was fixed within seconds.

That made me goto BT

Sky free calls are only for weekend and evenings, not 24/7 as you make out in your comparison to NTL with TU24.

NTL:
£11.50 for base
£10 for broadband
£18.49 for TU

Quite right, I do apologise. Skys web site is not that clear when you are comparing them.
It is pretty amazing they are offering free calls to USA, Canada and Australia - how are they making money on that??
