Quote:Oh I didn't know that was on. If thats the case then well maybe its just me calling her thats expensive. Do you think I could add that telephone number safetly to my 1899 bill...
That's doubtful
Get her to dial 1899 (with the appropriate prefix to get an outside line). If she can connect to 1899, she will be able to do so without registering the number, as anyone can. All that it does is tell you you have to register the number. It also gives you the number you are calling from at the end of the announcement.
I presume that when she calls from the phone, it gives a withheld number. If so, get her to put 1470 infront of the outside number. For example if she dials 1234 to make an outside call, and she wanted to ring 012345678, she would normally dial 1234012345678. Get her to try 1234
1470012345678. This will normally give out the number on a residential line when it is perminantly withheld.
So if she can call you by adding 1470, look at your caller display or dial 1471 to see if a number is left. I don't expect it to work, but it's worth a try.
Can you get us a link to some more information on this telephone system?
