i have just changed my number with bt due to funny phonecalls:rolleyes:
(not funny to me though:o)
any way it has been changed today and my broadband is still worrking.
the problem is that i have just contacted bethere.co.uk to inform them of my number change and they say that my broadband could stop up to a month after the number change due to bts systems not updating, is this true? im concerned that im going to have to pay £24 to get it reconnected if they do, is there anyway to find out that its not going to get cut off?

Should'nt have any impact as bband does'nt join your phonelline until after the tie pairs in the PSTN exchange.0
