"NTL customers told to "f***" off

Callers reporting faults to telecom company NTL were greeted by a recorded
message telling them to f*** off.

A man with a strong Geordie accent made the foul-mouthed announcement.

The message said: "Hello. You are through to NTL customer services. We don't
give a f*** about you. We are never here.

"We just will f*** you about, basically, and we are not going to handle any of
your complaints. Just f*** off."

The message was on a line for call centres in Manchester, Swansea and
Lanarkshire.

Company sources said an outside hacker breaking into the NTL system was the
most likely culprit, though an employee with a grudge wasn't ruled out.

Spokesman Malcolm Padley said: "We'd like to apologise." "

Personally I think the company should be applauded for its honesty, after all,
whenever I've had the misfortune to need to call such a centre, the attitude I
have come across is one where the company really does have the above less than
helpful attitude so accurately decribed in the geordie message. Honesty from a
call-centre is *refreshing* I suppose ;-)

We'd have been suspicious if it had been a woman with a strong Geordie
