On the contrary, we feel that in this case GANDI is merely enforcing
Section "INSTRUCTIONS - Adding a host - Add the reverse IN-ADDR entry"
of RFC1033 "DOMAIN ADMINISTRATORS OPERATIONS GUIDE" at
http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1033.txt

Your ire would be better directed at hostmaster at cableinet.net (Telewest
Communications Networks Limited) for not providing you with a reverse
IN-ADDR entry (a PTR Record), preferably one that matches its A Record.
