Hey everyone,

I'm looking for an alternative number for the ecademy teleconferencing service. They use 0870/1 numbers for calls from the UK and abroad:

UK: 08712712942
Others: +44 870 054 9913

Clearly being able to call a local number for them would be massively beneficial - especially as I spend over 2 hours a week talking through them.

The only address I can find is for their UK office (http://www.ecademy.com/node.php?id=71514):

The Ecademy Limited
Stronsay
Tilford Road
Hindhead
Surrey
GU26 6UG

But I'm not sure that will be much help. In case it's useful, I want to contact them to join a teleconference - you know it's the correct number when you get a recorded female voice saying 'welcome to the ecademy blah blah blah. To join an existing room, press 1...'

Thanks :)

The address quoted in the OP is incorrect, and I have found the following page on this service:

The last question, in fact, the last word gives a vital clue:

Q: What if I have a problem with the service? A: If you are unsure about any aspect of the service or would like to comment on its usability please e-mail our ETCS partners customer service desk at support@callvox.co.uk

As suspected, this is a service provided by a third party, Callvox.

Callvox's conferencing service gives telephone 0871 271 2912 in the UK or +44 870 050 1622 from abroad.

These are similar very numbers to those provided for ecademy's conferencing service.

Callvox's website doesn't give its address, but Whois callvox.co.uk (that's a look-up of the registration data for this internet address) gives:

Domain name:         callvox.co.uk     Registrant:         Call Vox Ltd     Registrant type:         Unknown     Registrant's address:         12 West Hill         Budleigh Salterton         EX9 6BS         United Kingdom

Not sure how much use this will be in tracking down an alternative as this is a residential street.

The 0870 050, 0870 054 and 0871 271 number blocks are allocated to Thus.
