NTL is confused as hell over this issue. They want to say the phone line is included in the price because that sounds like you're getting a good deal, and in fact they used to say that a lot, but then when you look at the comparable NTL and Sky packs, sky is about a tenner cheaper ... so now NTL uses £19.50 as a 'headline' figure and then puts in the small print that you are obliged to rent a phone line at the same time as you order the TV, pushing up the cost by £9.50 a month.
For the avoidance of doubt:
THE NTL PHONE LINE IS NOT FREE. IT COSTS £9.50 A MONTH AND YOU ARE FORCED TO SUBSCRIBE TO IT WHEN YOU BUY ANY TV PACK FROM NTL.
Hope that clears it up.
