Man Cleared For NTL Message Abuse
Posted: 08th Jun, 2005 By: MarkJ
The man responsible for changing NTL's automated telephone message to something more colourful, Ashley Gibbin, has been cleared in a court because the message wasn't offensive enough =):
Callers were told: "Youre through to NTL customer services. We dont give a f*** about you. Were never here. Just f*** off and leave us alone. Get a life." The message was removed but not before several hundred customers heard it
After an urgent investigation the ISP tracked the call to the house of Ashley Gibbin, a 26 old year taxi driver from Teesside. He was charged with sending a grossly offensive message and faced a possible six month sentence.
