If they're unhelpful, you can go to the Office of Fair Trading or Virgin Media, but none of that remotely impacts on the validity of a broadband subsidy.

I was living in New Zealand 35 years ago and local calls were free (as they are now) to get that here you have to be locked into a 12 month contract its time BT looked after the people who keep them and deliver what they promised at no extra cost to the people who are already paying through the nose BEN
