The Telewest dialling numbers* now take me to a looping ad for https://www.worldcalls.co.uk. What's going on ?

    I think you'll find that the access number for non-BT lines is 0808 170 7474. :)

    It depends where you look on their website but 0808 170 74 74 and 0808 1 708 708 both appear to be valid access numbers for cable landline users.
    Time has moved on (much quicker than it used to - or so it seems at my age) and my previous advice on residential telephony has been or is now gradually being overtaken by changes in the retail market. Hence, I have now deleted links to my previous 'pearls of wisdom'. I sincerely hope they helped save some of you money.

    We had this query when we signed up a few days ago. So we used the number that was given in the sign up e-mail which was 0808 170 7474.
