Cable Tel acquired NTL which then rebranded and called itself NTL, the orginal part of the business (NTL Broadcast which NTL actually was from the 60's) was sold off by the company to Arquiva.
But bare in mind, most of the cable phone services such as call routing,switching,emergency services,operator assistance and some companies directory enquiries was all provided by Mercury. To this day operator assistance and emergency services are provided by Cable and Wireless.
