Ok, thanks.
I could not get the proxy to work, so I resorted to using dial-up instead (different provider) and that worked!
I will test tonight the number with X-lite0 -
Has anyone adding phone numbers to the address book in X-lite. I was trying to change a number and also add a new number but the settings were not saved when I restarted the computer. I was able to do it when I first downloaded the program but cant seem to now. I am forgetting to do something obvious?
Thanks0 -

Try: http://www.samair.ru/proxy/proxy-12.htm for a proxy.
Once you get a UK IP range, you should find Sipgate then lists the London 020 number you are after.

Depending on your browser, you will need to enter the proxy details, many browsers allow easy selection of proxy.
However with IE you need to go into Internet Options, connections, and then either settings or LAN settings and enter the proxy details there.It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!(OK my English isn't great, the sciences, maths & IT are my strong points!)0 -

You find a UK proxy from the list of proxies (http://www.samair.ru/proxy/proxy-13.htm) and enter it in the Internet Options.
IE) 193.63.75.19:3127 - You enter 193.63.75.19 in the address option under proxy settings and the 3127 in the port setting.
No need to reboot, but once you have manged to get your number, remove the proxy details.It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc... It's no one not noone, It's a lot not alot, It's got not gotten... Panini is the plural of panino - there is no S!!(OK my English isn't great, the sciences, maths & IT are my strong points!)0 -

Shouldn't do.
I could set up a number for you if you wished.It's PAC not PAC Code, it's MAC not MAC Code, it's PIN not PIN Number, it's ATM not ATM Machine, it's LCD not LCD Display, it's DVD not DVD disc...
