When I ring BT to discuss this account at all, they send a text to my phone and I must read back to them an authorization code. Until I have done this they tell me they cannot speak to me about the account. I was under the assumption that this protection would absolutely apply to adding things to the order.
With the exception of a few months, I have been a BT customer since 1965, and I have never had such a thing happen to me. I have BT phone, broadband, TV and Sport.
I do get an email of confirmation after every dealing with them.
Evidently, your daughter pretended to be you on the phone to BT, so it would be fraud."There are not enough superlatives in the English language to describe a 'Princess Coronation' locomotive in full cry. We shall never see their like again". O S Nock0 -

If this is correct then it's obviously a new thing or perhaps something they've put in place on your account given your previous conversations with them. It wouldn't have affected any contact that your daughter would have had in the past of course if I'm right.0
