NTL:Telewest starts rebranding Virgin Media

Yesterday post arrived from the Virgin Media explaining the shiny new services (which aren't really new) and that you'll now be able to get TV, Internet, voice and mobile from the same company.

They are now all subsuming into Virgin Media, though Virgin Mobile will still be just that.

Even Email addresses will change, though customers have the option of keeping their old NTL or Telewest addresses.

The major real change is that there's now just one bill for all Virgin services.

Currently cable has a major advantage of really being able to offer a quad play and converged services all down one pipe, but they don't have the money to expand the network so may well use local loop unbundling or even wireless to extend coverage.
