FN-FORUM: ADSL and BT line number changes
date posted 1st October 2003 22:28
Hi Guys,
Just wondering if any of you have any experience of changing your phone
number with ADSL installed.
More specifically, I'm getting a few nuisance fax calls for one day in
about 10 - 37 today between 2 and 5pm. I've pleaded with BT to make
them stop, but after 2 years of these things happening, I'm considering
giving in and having my number changed.
BT told me to check with my DSL provider that they would be ok with a
number change. Plus Net came back today to tell me they would charge me
a second activation fee, as it would effectively be having ADSL
re-installed on the new number. It's an office-500 package (20:1
contention), not that that should make any difference I would think.
Needless to say, I'm loathed to pay for a second installation of an ADSL
service I already have unless I definitely have no choice, so I wanted
to check if anyone else has had this experience.
TIA
Richie
