Its apparently quite common that they ask for a bond according to something I read on their website.

Do you have telewest connections already in the house ?. At my old address there wasn't any connection so they wanted a £200 bond,probably to offset connection costs (approx £400 per property to connect a property, Ive heard), at my new house , the cables where in place and no bond was asked for.

I was with telewest for 3 years then left, they didn't ask for any fee's of me, just went back to them again after leaving them for a year and again no set up fee.
if they are putting you on 512mb this will automatic me upgraded to 2mb be4 xmas, edinburgh side already have been upgraded last week.

I signed up for the 2 for £20 offer the beginning of September, I was told I needed to show two utility bills, later told I passed their credit check with flying colours and didn't need to show any bills, nor require a deposit.

This was a new connection.

no cis there are no connections on the house so i take it that is why they asked for the bond. looks like im going to have to stump it up. unless anyone knows of any other good deals that i could get ???
