GODDAMNEDMOFO'IN NTL
Please note that we have lived at our address for 4 years now and have never had NTL services at this address. Nor have we ever used NTL for anything. And above all else there is no NTL apparatus/plant/cables/fibre optics in the roads where I live.
Since May of this year me and the missus have been receiving a bill addressed to .Smatv (then our address) every month stating that we owe £9.50. I got home this evening to receive another bill now totalling £28.50. The first bill we received I called them and I was told to post back the bill writing not at this address across the front of the envelope, which I did. Another month goes by and we receive a bill so call the same number, explain the situation and then get told that the account has now been closed and "please accept our apologies". Great thinks I and another month goes by only to receive another bill. I call the number again, explain the situation again and get told again that the account has now been closed (this time I obtain a name and their supervisors name). I have now just got off the phone after "your through to the wrong department" blah blah and after 23minutes of pi55ing about I finally talk to someone who deals with the issue only to be told that "the account has now been closed". I've obtained the persons name and their office location and extension number so now I will wait and see if their assurance of the closed account comes true in a months time. To say I'm not happy right now is an understatement so I would like some S'NET advise. If I receive another bill next month I've told the missus I will be taking action against NTL starting off with a call to the CAB. Where do I stand as I feel like suing NTL for all this grief/hassle they have caused. BASTIDS!!! |
It's not addressed to you, so in future you should write 'Return to Sender' on it and pop it back in the post....
That's all that's needed as it's nothing to do with you....:thumb: |

I'd stick the letter in the bin not the post box and get back to something more important. I certainly wouldn't be wasting my money on phonecalls to NTL.

Had exactly the same thing happen couple of years ago.
I also had to write to both OFCOM and OTELO and NTL to get it sorted. Just writing/ringing NTL will not get the situation resolved. |

Sara, Prodriva,
After a couple/few of months of getting bills and writing/phoning to NTL with no results i wrote to OFCOM and OTELO stating what was happening and also to NTL stating that i'd written to OFCOM and OTELO. NTL then wrote to say sorry and that it had been sorted. In total in took about Six months to sort out and this was ringing NTL every other week or so and writing at least half a dozen times. :rolleyes: Interestingly, the NTL brand will now be dropped entirely and as from very soon they will be branded as VIRGIN after paying SRB a shed load of £££ for the rights to do so! |
well all this sums up why, despite Telewest being about us helpful as an eggy fart in a lift, I do not want to change to NTL.
So how thrilled was I when I saw an advert from NTL/Telewest in the press this morning? - the b@st@rds have merged :mad: :cry: :mad: |
And like i said above, they'll all be called Virgin soon :lol1: Pity the poor people signing up thinking they're getting some quality new Virgin venture not realising that it's really NT Hell :lol1:
|
as soon as i have my BT line i am off to carphone warehouse :thumb:
