Any way of discount for a NEW NTL customer?

Hi all,

I'm after the cheapest way to combine phone and broadband for my new house which I move into on Friday. I like the look of the £25 phone and broadband bundle, although I admit I am tempted to buy VoIP kit and just have a broadband line.

I was wondering after reading on here about how ppl barter with NTL, whether this is possible to do as a brand new customer please?

If so could ppl post their success stories here?

thanks.

    Well it doesn't look like it. I think you mean special offers for new customers or referrals? Not that they have much, currently having half price broadband for 3 months. Order online and you save a further £10
    Offer applies to new customers only who order online. A £10 credit will be applied to your first bill. £10 online order discount is not available with 3 month half price broadband offer.
    They will probably have some good deals as I think ISPs are waiting the outcome on the TalkTalk broadband story.

    IMO the only incentive for me I guess, is being paid some money for taking these offers up via Quidco. Sign up through Quidco and you get £27.50 :D

    Some of the success stories you hear and see about on here are for existing customers who have finished their minimum contract term and are in a position to leave so they can negotiate some offers. For example from another forum:
    Details for NTL:
    Free set up - no fee
    Unlimited Download Limit per month
    2MB Broadband (garanteed)
    12 Month Contract
    Telephone line
    Talk unlimited 24 call plan
    £20.99 a month
    This is not an advertised deal. This might be offered for existing customers, via the cancellations dept at Ntl I think if they mention that they will leave for the TalkTalk deal. :)

    cool - thanks for that.
  • If you get an existing NTL customer to recommend you they will get a £30 credit and you will get a tenner.

    Do you know anyone with NTL? I am (hint)
