    Can you not just call them and find out?

    Don't be ridiculous. That would be the sensible thing to do.

    They tend to say it will be available soon even when there is no prospect of it being.

    Don't believe a word that NTL sales tell you about it being available soon, they have no knowledge if it will. When it is available and you are a current NTL TV customer, then they will send you flyers to let you know.

    However NTL does seem to be rolling out very fast now and I'd say it won't be long before all of Dublin is covered.

    Just some info you might like to know:
    I live in Finglas East (Cedarwood area) and we tried to get NTL Digital before Christmas. When NTL came out they measured the signal strength and said it was averaging -23dB sometimes going as high as -31dB. He said that to get NTL Digital the absolute minimum is -19dB. I'd expect that the broadband signal strength requirement would be way higher than -19dB.

    NTL are coming out on the 9th to investigate the low signal strength, so I'll ask about broadband in the area then. But judging by the low signal power levels I have I wouldn't be surprised if the whole area is crap, signal wise.
