NTL: £9.99 per month for 1MB BB/ Anyone with Zazizam?

Just a question regarding the NTL unlimited BB offer for £9.99 per month. Do you need to have an NTL line already to take this up or can you use this with a BT line. Been on the website for quite some time but can't figure it out! Anybody using there BB offer on a BT line?

Thanks

    - think this is on NTL cable, so not BT line & if i remember price reverts to £17.99 after 12 months
  • Hello, yes, you need an NTL cable. After 12months the price does increase but by which time you are out of contract an dcan threaten to take your business elsewhere. Thats what i did and after 12 months i am still getting the service for £9.99! Have a look at some of the NTL posts.

    You will need to make sure that you are in an NTL enabled area which I think you can do from their website somewhere.

    cheers

    Tony,

    I live in an NTL area and have just been connected. Only had BT before.

    They will cable you for free, and give you a free modem.
    You do not need to take TV or phone..

    If you sign-up online you get a £10 discount, and even better, if you sign up
    to "r points" and go via their site to sign up with NTL you get 1500 points which is worth another £15. ;)

    I'm still £5 in profit 2 months in.:j

  • Thanks guys. Accroding to the website, I am enabled to get NTL however, upon phoning customer services, my area is not cabled to receive NTL! Strange!!! (I was also looking at there 3 for £30 offer, but thats not good to me now either)

    Anyone with zazizam? Whats the CS like? Any problems? They are doing a Standard User 2mb, 2Gb Usage BB pacakge for £11.99 (or £13.99 without there talk package). Seems good.

    I am using zazizam - they do have a good service - i have been with them for about 15 months or so (its been over a year anyway). I use their unlimited 512k package, and they haven't let me down yet (touch wood). CS in my experience, has been good and helpful - though I have only found them twice - once in the beginning, so they correct my billing date (I migrated in from Virgin to save £5 a month, now £7/£9 with talk) - as Virgin were a week slow in letting me go.

    The second time was setting up a router so I connect more than 1 pc to the broadband at the same time - where the agent was extremely helpful - this was in January ish.

    I have several friends on them too, broadband and unmetered - with my mother just signed up to their new standard broadband package (the one you are looking at) - when it came up on Tuesday, she was previously paying £14 for their unmetered option - which was equally of good service, so I have been told.


    Need any more help - just ask :)
