Who provides my phone line?

[touch]

Moved into a new flat recently and the master phone socket has a logo on it that looks like a circle with a capital T inside. Anybody know what company this is.
its not BT (obviously) and they want £130 to instal a bt line.

It was probably an old Telewest line

Is it like this...?

Just an older BT logo.

Dads got a toolbox with one on

£130 sounds like a rip off, tell them your thinking of using someone else and they may do it for free.

Telewest installed all my stuff for free.....

Sign up to sky, get any tv package you want, get free internet, free evening and weekend calls and they'll credit your account with the bt installation fee.

If it has a dial tone, dialing 150 will usually put you through to the phone company the line is with.

This thread makes me feel old.

It's the old BT logo, yes.

So if you are temptedings by free ring-dings, two sports channels, BBC Four, and superior internet service providings for providing the service of the internet service provider, plus membership of the fourth best internet dating site, it will only cost six pounds per month for the first forty-six months, with a downpayment of 180 pounds for the first month, then free for the next six months.

It's much better than Sky.

Huh?

They want you to pay £130 for reconnection, probably means your line has been cut at the exchange or one of the green boxes in the street. Ring the post office home phone service, get them to reconnect you for £110 but with no contract so you can then change to any provider you want.

Do they do this for existing customers? cause when we had sky put in we kept the Virgin phone line & Broadband. Would be real helpful if they did.

Would you like to upgrade regrade or downgrade to a different grade to your current grade?

No mate, worth giving them a ring though.

But as far as I am aware its a big nono.

 

[Matteysan]

Ah that is pretty poo, I'll have to give sky a ring & see what they say.

Thanks
