As mentioned by bbb_uk, and supported by my own assessment of the companies new location, they are probably on VoIP.

Whether you want another number or not, all you'll ever be likely to get, if it's at the same location, is the 0870. They don't have any other number so it's NO GOOD nagging them for it.

I'm afraid that this technology is beating us, unless someone can come up with a successful way to bypass it. Something on VoIP maybe, or using a computer ??

It stops hurting when I stop banging it against the wall !!

What was that about fairness and equity?

Goodness knows what the charge is, not had the mobile bill yet, but at least you can access and use the service.

BT Home Monitoring System (Alarm)
Reply #18 - Feb 24^th, 2007 at 1:31pm

Hi, does anybody happent to know or be able to find out the geographical numbers which the BT Home Monitoring System (Home Alarm System) could use to dial out? The 0870 numbers it currently uses to dial out to are: 0870 160 1348 & 0870 160 1349. These are running up my phone bill dramatically as I have it set to update my status on my internet user page to show whether the alarm has been switched on or not. Their website is: www.myhomemonitoring.bt.com - All of the numbers on there are only for their customer service department all of which also 0870 numbers. Any help would be much appreciated.

The numbers they use when they call you to inform you of an alert is: 02920 729021 & 02920 729022 and you are actually able to call those back to respond to an alert rather than using the 0870 number 0870 405 0504. I wonder if there is a number similar to these which they use as their incoming number for the alarms to dial in to.

The systems are actually monitored by -

Intamac Systems Ltd	. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
Brooke House
4, The Lakes
Bedford Road	Tel. 0870 1117234
Northampton	Fax. 0870 1117235
NN4 7YD	www.Intamac.com

Does anyone have any more useful info please ?? Undecided

Intamac were formally at unit 9, Westlea Business Park, Scirrocco Close, Moulton Park, Northampton NN3. I don't know if this helps?

I am sure that this will cause a stir, but some (sme) companies use 0870 type non geo numbers to route calls to multiple places or to hide their home phone number if they work from home.

I have had (in the past) an 0870 number ported over the top of my landline, by my work so that they could re-port it when my contract ended and customers couldn't contact me direct afterwards. Shame I emailed them all first!!!!

The number of repeated requests for this and associated numbers being called from their telephone account without their knowledge is amazing.

When you get these systems, surely it's in the paperwork that it does these checks. Doesn't anyone read the booklets that come with them or is it that the companies selling them don't give out this information to the users ?? Roll Eyes
