Reply #15 - Sep 25^th, 2007 at 2:51pm All of these are coming through as you have dialled an incorrect number from my phone, I'm willing to give the other prefixes a try though, fingers crossed eh? If you'd like to disclose these, I will try and get it sorted. Thank you for all your help so far, and fingers crossed it'll be done! Dale

Prefixes beginning 01782 allocated to NTL are as follows:

01782 23 03/1996
01782 24 03/1996
01782 25 03/1996
01782 35 11/1995
01782 462 09/2006
01782 465 09/2006
01782 76 04/1997
01782 85 01/1995
01782 86 01/1995
01782 87 04/1997
01782 881 10/2005
01782 882 10/2005
01782 883 10/2005
01782 884 10/2005
01782 885 10/2005
01782 886 10/2005
01782 887 10/2005

Dates shown are "change dates" and are likely to indicate when the prefix came into service. Some of the later prefixes have three local digits (ie they are blocks of 1,000 instead of 10,000). In these cases you will need to put the last three digits onto the end of these. I suggest you try those prefixes allocated in 2006 and 2005 first.

Let's assume that those from 1995/6 have been used.

The 01782 24 shortcut was widely known for years... they KeyCom found out we knew and cut it all off. There is currently no known way around this, other than using a mobile/phone box (and I know how bad certain networks are at keele.)

Good Luck Mate. I'm living out this year... so I have a lovely landline number all of my own. Much better.

This is a very important point. Are you saying you can call your room's phone using 01782 24+whatever?

Which begs the question, why would they change it and then change it back? I think it's more likely that they somehow blocked it and now unblocked it.

I'd agree with that! Although its still not working for dialling out, although that is insignificant really, only really want calls coming in on it for now Huh

Could in theory become blocked once more.

I can confirm this is now working again (Tested into LINDSAY halls).

AFAIK, BT reconnected it. From what I hear on the grapevine, BT (or whoever provides the incomming systems) beleive the numbers should be reachable from 01782, KeyCom don't, so cut the cables as they come into the Uni's phone system. BT (or whoever) politely reconnect them every now and again.

Would that make sense, or have I been fed crap?

Reply #27 - Sep 7^th, 2008 at 4:03pm Keele has dumped KeyCom and the 08 number More details here: http://students.keele.ac.uk/telephones.htm The dialing out rates are also far more reasonable than they ever were too now, with landline calls for under 1p a minute. Which unlike KeyCom is actually cheap! Fantastic. Minardi

That's excellent news!

Very reasonable outgoing call rates and incoming geographical numbers.
