FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


             NTL STATEMENT IN RESPONSE TO ITC AND OFTEL PROVISIONAL
              FINDINGS ON THE BUNDLING OF TELEPHONY AND TELEVISION


New York, New York; (February 8, 2000) - Barclay Knapp, President and CEO of NTL
Incorporated  (Nasdaq:  NTLI; Easdaq: NTLI) said today "the ITC and OFTEL report
is short and to the point  because its  conclusions  were easy to arrive at: our
packaging of TV and telephony is great for  customers.  I am delighted  that the
regulators have decided to throw out Sky's complaint.

NTL's  emergence  as the UK's leading  cable  operator is built on an ability to
deliver  great  products  and  services  that  its  customers  want  - in a very
competitive  marketplace.  This is borne  out by  penetration  and  churn  rates
consistently much higher than industry averages.

Since  1993,  NTL has  invested  over 3 billion  pounds  sterling  in building a
broadband  network that brings these services to UK homes within its franchises.
This  report is an  endorsement  of the way in which NTL  delivers  and  markets
telephony and pay TV services over that network."
