Leave of absence
Michelle:
I am writing for permisson for leave, as I am moving home tomorrow and british telecom are that busy they cannot connect my line for 3 weeks! That seems excessive to me? Anyway I've called and called and the last person said - hmmm thats funny your line is ringing, so maybe you won't need an engineer? ..... I've not checked yet as this is my last night in this house. Which reminds me BT should have disconnected this line at 10pm, how am I on line? LOL
Anyway if I'm not around I will be soon, with more tales no doubt of the dreaded mesh!
cheerio :wink:
Simon:
Best of luck with the move, Michelle! See you soon! :D
Sandra:
Good luck Michelle.
When I moved here in 1998, I rang BT from the phone in the house and asked them to change it to my name.
They said that there wasnt a line at my address and that it was probably an extension from the house next door.
I said well I am ringing you on it and it didnt appear to be an extension as the houses either side had a different number :roll:
I had the same problem with the gas too as no one knew who the supplier was.
I was told to ring Transco as they own the pipe that the gas companies use and they would know who the supplier was.
They said that I wasnt connected to their pipe but they didnt know anyone else who could have gas piped to my house :shock:
Eventually it was all sorted out when they realised that they had my house number wrong and had added 10 to it for both the phone and the gas :?
GillE:
Hope the move goes well and you're happy in your new place.
