Help wanted for NTL deal

My mum a pensioner has been offered by NTL a deal whereby she can get her phone, her television channels and now broadband for £30 a month. She currently pays £22 a month for her phone and TV channels. Do you think I could get any better a deal with them. She doesn't want the hassle of changing but she would like broadband. She does use her computer a lot, although not the internet as dial up is so slow!!! I think broadband would be good for Tesco ordering, e-mails etc. I have to say it sounds like a good deal already but I would love someone to say its not.

    i she doesn't want the hassle of changing - then you are pretty much stuck with NTL
  • hi, hope i can help your mum, im with NTL and was on the brink of moving back to BT to take advantage of oranges free broadband (you need a BT line)
    customer service at ntl were not interested, but if you ask to be put through to disconnections its a different story, i explained what i planned to do and they have now given me 2mb broadband, the basic TV package and phone line all for £20 a month for 12 months,,,think your mum should try for that,,,,
    Titch :)
