Can somebody tell me what the routing looks like for 01, 02 and 03 numbers?
I'm currently CPS with virgin for £9.99 ADSL but i get unlimited evening calls with BT so i want to 1280 them during the day but i can find the 01, 02 and 03 number routing or do i have to do them individually?
thanks

In any case, I don't understand why on earth you would want to use the 1280 prefix on your daytime calls!
(1). Most people who use a CPS calls provider make sure they're on the cheapest BT package - which used to be BT Together Option 1 but which is now their Unlimited Weekend Plan.
(2). The waters have been muddied though because, although the next package used to be BT Together Option 2 - which is now their Unlimited Evening & Weekend Plan, they're offering that free as long as you agree to a 'renewable' 12 month contract.
I suspect you're on (1) in which case your four Routing Rules for local, 01, 02 and 03 calls should read:
Day - 18185 (5p each regardless of duration);
Evening - AOL;
Weekend - BT ('qualifying' calls for free Caller Display and/or [if you must use it] basic 1571).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.0 -
Sorry i haven't given the correct info as you state,
I wanted to use 1280 weekday evenings.
I have BT together option 2 as you state, but i have CPS virgin media to get my BB.
So it should be
01, 02 and 03 calls
Day 18185
Evening BT
Weekends BT

Yes, if Virgin (non-cable) still operate CPS. If they've changed to WCLI, the 1280 prefix won't work.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.

I am aware that AOL have recently changed from CPS to WCLI too but I do not know whether or not that is also the case with Virgin (non-cable) CPS.Tomlewis007 wrote: »In the cwclient what do i select for 01, 02 and 03 numbers or do i just do all 0 numbers?
1 *2*9 --Local 'L' ---- L 1 3 3
2 01---- National 'A'-- A 1 3 3
3 02---- National 'A' --A 1 3 3
4 03---- Allowed Call --A 1 3 3
That means, of course, that you're not using your Virgin CPS package at all.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.0
