    than BT don't like to lose the money.

    Does it not work if you dial it direct without the access code.
  • Are you on CPS? If so, dial 1280

    Yes I've tried 1280 but it does'nt recognise it for some reason.

    Well my mum ended up calling the number with this card and managed to get through.

    If I get can get some time-off tomorrow I hope to pursue this with TalkTalk.

    Thanks for your suggestions.

    If the 1280 prefix does not work that means it's no longer a BT line using TT just as a CPS calls provider (i.e. unfortunately, line rental has been switched to TT).
    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.
