BT telephone?

What is the correct system to forward your BT telephone number to another one like your mobile



Answers:

you need to have call diversion it costs £1.75 a month and allows you to divert your calls to a alternative number remember you pay for the diverted part of the call... you let your new phone supplier sort that out. unless your talking about a divert in which case you ring the 100 operator who will help. All you do is contact your preferred supplier then they will give you all the information you need. It is the same as changing any utility supplier

Bt wiring help?

Hello, I have an extension in my house that is unwired and i Would like to have a go at wiring it. There is one cable in, 6 numbered IDC terminals, 2 terminals marked A and B. The wires I would refer to as mostly Blue with white, mostly white with blue, orange white, white orange etc etc. Can anyone help or know where i could get a diagram. Im not asking BT as i cant afford it. The only diagram i can find online is for a`master socket which this isnt. Thanks



Answers:

A and B are usually found on the master socket or NTE and not on extension sockets. You only need to connect 3 wires to the NTE and the same 3 wires in the extension socket. Blue with white=2 Orange with white=3 and White with blue=5.



2 and 5 carry the dial tone and 3 is the bell wire which makes the extension socket ring. You%26#39;re right not to ask BT as a new extension would cost in excess of £100. All I would say is that in this day and age of cordless phones and wireless broadband, you really only need 1 socket in the whole house. have a look for DIY sites, or electrical sites or just type in wiring a phone socket, youll find it somewhere on the internet Have a look at: http://www.wppltd.demon.co.uk/wpp/wiring... The only thing to remember once you have got info needed to wire up extention point is if you have any problems with your phone line afterwards bt will charge you to sort it out if the extra point is causing the problem you wont get money back if it isnt they will refund the charge but you can bet it wont be bts fault so they will keep the charge

Busy signal?

when I pick up the reciver it has a busy signal instead of a steady buzz . it still dials out with out any problem .whats wrong with my phone or phone line. I keep having phone problem and the phone compny keeps saying it%26#39;s in your line . I have replaced the line three times. I also replaced the wall plugs



Answers:

Simple enough to see if it is indeed the phone company%26#39;s problem or an inside wiring problem in your home.



IF you know where the interface box is (where the phone line comes to your home, there is a box that when opened will have a place for you to actually plug your phone into it and get a dial tone etc. to test your line).



When you find this interface box, plug one of your phones into the box and if you get the SAME thing at this point, it is NOT your phone, wiring etc., it IS a problem with the phone company%26#39;s line.



NOW, if this IS a voicemail notification, surely you%26#39;d know that by now, but maybe not. If you DO have voicemail, you would know it because when you have voicemail through the phone company YOU PAY FOR IT. It%26#39;s not free either, it%26#39;s about $5 extra a month. PLUS, I%26#39;d think you would know how to use it especially if you wanted it enough to subscribe to it!



SO, bottom line, go to that interface box and plug your phone in and see what happens. If it does NOT do it at this point, then yes, you might need to further investigate by having the phone company come out. Whether it is your inside wiring or NOT, the phone company should accomodate you and repair regardless of if it%26#39;s their responsibility or yours.

Call rejection will not reject calls from cell phones?

The phone company caller rejection service doesn%26#39;t work on calls from cell phones. I%26#39;m looking for an answering machine or some device which will reject calls from any number. Is such a gizmo available?

Caller ID wont work on new phone??

yes i do have caller ID services. i bought new phones, they are V-Tech brand. about every other day, i will get one phone call to come up. other phones in the house work sometimes, but alot more often then the new ones.



i took the phones back and exchanged for new ones, but that hasn%26#39;t solved the problem. i was hoping maybe someone has had a similar problem, or knows what to do...PLEASE HELP!



and thank you in advance for any advice.



Answers:

make sure you got a new battery in it.that happens once to me.all I needed was a fresh battery and voila.it worked! I felt so silly afterward... It has been so long since I have had a land line, it%26#39;s hard to remember. Look in your phone manual to make sure that there isn%26#39;t a certain setting that has to be done first. If not, get on their website and see if you can find answers. If you still can%26#39;t, the number for customer service will be on the website. Call it. the first problem is that the phone is a v-tech.. should have gone panasonic..



but you mention that the other phones CID work "sometimes" how many devices do you have plugged in? perhaps there is too many phones, etc connected to your line to get a good signal.. or perhaps you have a problem on your line... why not try testing the CID with this "phone" with all the other phones in your home unplugged... if it still dosent work, call the phone company to tell them about your CID problems.. they can check in the switch to make sure everything is programmed properly on there end, and to do a line test...
