You gave it nine minutes before reposting according to my record. Twice is
certainly once too many when one has nothing to say.

Could you "forward as attachment" one of my missing posts to
[email protected] so that I may examine the headers and forward on
to NTL's newsgroup team and identify why only intermittent posts are showing
on ntl server.
Many thanks.
Steve.

I dumped Ntl for exactly this reason. really spoilt my surfing pleasure. I
ended up going to a more expensive but far more proffesional outfit (Zen)
Prior to that I subscribed to news.individual.net for a small fee. They work
well so far but I shouldn't have had too if Ntl had pulled out their fingers
after over 6 months of complaining and promises of it'll be fixed next month
with the upgrade.

I am on NTL and there is something a bit odd about posting. Sometimes my
first post vanishes into thin air. At the second try it works.
Also some of the threads are missing or incomplete.

Same here Les, when I phoned up the NTL helpdesk I was put through to a nice
gentleman in India who asked me "what a Newsgroup was?"
I explained, he went away and after ten minutes he assured me that there was
nothing wrong with newsgroups as he could see the NTL homepage!!!! I
explained again and after thirty minutes of him explaining again and again
that the NTL homepage was fine I told him Newsgroups were not.
NTL are severely annoying me.
Andy
P.S. This is a short saga, earlier this year it took me six months to pay my
accounts as they kept trying to take it from someone else's account. In the
end they are refunding me ten pounds per month after they threatened to
damage my credit reference.

I know some guys who did some customer service work for ntl a while ago
(before they moved the operation to India, presumably), and nothing in this
thread surprises me. What does surprise me is that ntl have got such a big
name. I can't find anyone with a good word to say about them - on the
inside or outside.

NTLs news farm is part of its "Messaging Directorate" which was a team they
were trying to resource a few months ago - dunno if they ever got anyone
for the job.
The actual news farm is run by Highwinds Media who specialise in News
Service outsourcing - I've never been particularly impressed by them in the
several dealings I've had with them - highly not recommended.

That's easy to diagnose. NTL are a bunch of completely useless
****ers who don't give a flying **** about running a half decent nntp
service and caused far too much grief in terms of management of the
uk.* hierarchy. They are akin to the stuff you step in on the street,
but it's easier to clear dog **** than it is to get NTL to accept
there's a problem of their causing. Dump the turds.

Mother is right, NTL are beyond ****e. One of the hardest things I ever
tried to do was actually LEAVE NTL, emails weren't answered, automated phone
lines went dead, promised callbacks weren't called back. I had to cancell
my DD in the end, that got the bastards talking to me. I will never use any
of their products ever again, the company deserves to collapse and take all
of the incompetant ****ers it employs with them.
