2 weeks ago, I signed up for a BT phone line. At the time of signing up, I requested they make the line ex-directory, and TPS too (just to make sure).
Monday night (in the middle of eating my tea) I get this idiot ringing from a company called "design solutions" if i remember correctly, and asking me how I am. Rather than hang up, I asked him where he got this number from. "its on a national database". "well it shouldnt be, its an ex directory and TPS line". He gave me some number to have it taken off. Rather helpful, but he shouldnt have rung me to start with.
Does anyone know if BT re-use numbers? So my "new" number might have been in use, say, in this house, before?
