Exclamation CableTel !!!!

Hi guys

I went to a friends house today, but he didn't know what service his area had. So I looked on the little box (screwd to wall) and usually it'll say Ntl, or Telewest on there, but his had [ CableTel ] on it and then TV and FM I think.

I tryed a box and signal was coming through, cause I got the free channels. So how can I find out what his area is, so that I can programe him a card.

Please help

Hey guys

I was just wondering ! How accurate is the info on that site ?? Cause my friend in Sunderland has Virgin Media Internet, yet when I put his Post Code in, it comes up as "you are not in an ntl area"

Shouldn't it at least say that he is in an Telewest or Ex C&W ??

I want to know what he comes under !!

Thanks
