    no catch at all.

    I used to have an NTL account and never had a problem with the broadband. My only issues were with their absolutley shocking customer service.

    That being said, i'll always choose Cable of over BB through a phone line, as whats the point in a land line, if I have a mobile with free calls. So you get to save on line rental.

    Btw you get £10 off installation too

    How does this work? My phone line is with BT. Happy to stay with bt and does not want to switch due to cheap valls via 18185. If I take the virgin offer, what do you mean by installation, it's cable, isn't, will they be digging to instal the cables. Thanks

    This is for people who have no need of a phoneline and want broadband. It's the only way i know you can get broadband for £10/month without being forced to pay phoneline rental on top.

    btw if you are in an area that has cable usually all the digging necessary has already been done

    Posted this couple of weeks ago here.

    I took up a similar offer of £9.99/month in June 2005. It's still going strong at the same price (see above link for details). Very happy with the service. G
