If you have NTL Talk Unlimited 24 get free TV

Hi

If you are an NTL subscriber with the talk 24 unlimited telephone package, you can get around 36 free TV channels from NTL if you ask them. You may have to spend £25 to get connected if you havent got a Cable TV receiver.

I have just been told that i can have the freeview tv with 36 channels just as long as i have a phone line with them nothing else and so has my partner who doesn't live with me i made the call today as my partner had called them last night to cancel his starter package tv and was told this.

Feel free to correct me but this is what i was told about 10 minutes ago.

The FREE? TV service is available on any of their phone packages £11 a month upwards.

"Available to new and existing customers. There will not be any charge for the TV package as long as you continue to pay for your phone line. £25 standard phone installation charge applies to new customers and existing customers who are adding a phone line. You must take all services included in this package for at least 12 months"

But you pay through the nose if you use them for your calls.Read:

They have to pay for the FREE? TV somehow.

Interestingly, in their half page advert on page 6 of today's (18/9/06) Daily Telegraph, they state:

Switch to our phone service and the next generation of digital TV comes free. That's great armchair viewing and unlimited weekend landline* calls for just £11 a month for as long as you're a phone customer (when you pay by Direct Debit)

In the 6 lines of 'small print' at the bottom of the advert the asterisk beside the word landline is explained:

Phone: Talk Weekends. *For 1st 60 minutes, no charges are made for any direct-dialled voice-only non-geographic calls within the UK at weekends from midnight Fri-midnight Sun.

Spot the mistake?

Could it be the "..no charges are made for any direct-dialled voice-only non-geographical calls.."
