The North East CS Team won the National Customer Services Award 2003.

Yes UDT, like I have already said, we get good CS up here.

Well, it did take weeks of hanging on the phone nearly every day (with the exception of Sundays) in a call box to get their services

I would have to agree with you on this. I try not to call NTL as the experience can be dreadful. Having said that I've chosen the option of hit and miss. Hit being they know how to answer simple questions like can you tell like how much is itemised billing and how much does it cost to have voice. I try not to ask difficult question as I know this may confuse their minds like how comes BT offers free itemised billing and free voice mail and NTL don't!

a Snipe is a beautiful bird, with an unique bill, it has specific requirements for its nest. Unfortunately, these specialised species are often overwhelmed by those who can diversify and survive.

I don't think Homealone's post was aimed at you. I think he was joking.

Getting paranoid?

Sorry, what evidence do you have he's not? Homealone has been on my tail for a long time. He even PM me to say he had actually complained about me. How weird is that?

It is not surprising he has voted to say he has never had a problem with customer services.

im sorry? you think its 'weird' to have the decency to tell someone personally/to their face that you are unhappy with them and have complained about it?

that means i assume that you feel its normal to complain about someone yet not let them know? only a personal opinion, but thats 'weird' to me, or lacking in moral fibre.....



oh, and while we are on the subject, what in gods name has homealone making a complaint about you have to do with him having any problems with ntl???

If Homealone has a problem with me then he should approach me direct. But to complain about me to the mods and then tell me. Then that is weird.

And to answer your final paragraph. One of the problems homealone has said about me was the way I treated ntl and their employees with contempt. Well, it is not surprising considering the poor customer services and their usual rubbish. Anyway, I'm just wondering if homealone is an 'ntl luvvie' that goes around attacking those that speaks bad of NTL. I suspect he is even an NTL employee but he says he is not. However, we all know that NTL & their employees do not always go hand in hand with the truth.

PS Mark W, cut the nonsense about moral fibre - you work for NTL, remember.

because he has not complained loudly and constantly about ntl like some, that means he must be a secret ntl employee telling lies

cheers UDT, i was in need of a laugh

The best way to get a laugh is to dial this number 0800 052 2000. Now that is funny...
