    Yes I am getting this problem too. I am making locla calls that normally work but it just says "'18866 doesn't offer calls to this destination yet'

    I wondered if it had anything to do with the problems in Birmingham exhange, many thousnads in that area are without a phone

    That happened yesterday and is nearly resolved. This only started this afternoon.
  • I've just merged three threads regarding the problems with 18185/1899/18866.

    I have had no problems myself, but at the office just five minutes away been unable to route calls through 18185 at all.

    If you have an Orchid dialler - worth remembering you can dial ## + normal number to stop the dialler prefixing with your low cost carrier prefix. And just go down your 'normal ' provider.
    If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !

    Hi,
    Is anyone using call 18866 and having problems making calls at the moment? I just get 'Sorry 18866 does not offer calls to this destination yet' , doesn't matter what number I dial (mobile or landline) I get the same message. Just wondered if it was specific to me (and if so how do I fix it?) or is anyone else getting the same?

    Cheers
    Andy

    Now that is odd if it's affecting other providers as well. Anyone else?
