Homerton College Cambridge 0870 7300870
Oct 3rd, 2005 at 2:41pm
 
My girlfriend goes to school at Homerton college in Cambridgeand I am in America, and I am needing a way to access her room directly instead of using the 0870 number that I was given.

the number is 0870 7300870 with a four digit extension after.

I tried to do a search for it on google but I couldnt find anything, so any help would be great.

If it's one number that you dial and then the extension, then 'needle' and 'haystack' springs to mind. You are paying a premium to hear the ringing tone and may not actually get an answer!

However, we can try our best. Can you provide us with more information on the system, on the college's website, maybe? Can you also check the 0870 number you have given, as I think it is a digit short?

the number was wrong, you are right

it is 0870 7300870 xxxx (four digit extension at the end)

there aren't more than 150 people in the building, hopefully wouldn't be that hard to do the needle in the haystack

I don't really know what you mean by the system, but I do know some things:
01223 507252 (Admissions Office)
01223 507111 (Switchboard)
01223 507206 (fax)

And I attempted to call someone in the Porter's lounge and ask them if there was another phone number, but they told me that the only one was the 0870 number, I think that is because they are the ones that sell the phone cards to the students.

I am going to have her try and dial the BT test number 17070 to dial, but I dont know how well that will work because she has to dial out with a phone card. 

But I really do appreciate any help you are willing to offer, I have been dating her for three years now, and I'm not about to give up now

I found out last night that if you are to call the switchboard, then give them the four digit extension, they will transfer you through, but only sometimes.

I hope that helps.

From the three numbers you quote, there appears to be a clue to a prefix, although this may only work for the university.  Undecided

However, have you tried  01223 50xxxx, where xxxx is the four digit extension?

yeah I tried that and it doesnt work, I dont know whose phone that rings.  But if you call the switchboard they can transfer you to the number, but the problem is the guy wont do it anymore for me, dont know why though.

Maybe that might help you figure it out, because I'm pretty much at loss for the answer.
