Witheld Calling Codes

[AndrewJ]

Hey all.

I wish to know the code to disable a BT phone from dialing out withheld.

I am aware of 1470 before dialing number but would like the permenant shut up code for it.

Thanks.

Have a look here. (http://www.telephonesuk.co.uk/network_codes.htm) Don't know if it's got the code you want but it seems quite a comprehensive list of the BT codes available.

Damn that one I want isn't there which is basically the totally turn off Withheld Caller ID whenever it calls out.

Have I understood this right? Do you want to completely withhold your number all of the time?

If so, I'm sure that BT can apply this to your line if you call and ask for it - I don't think they charge either. If it's the other way around, and you want your number to be visible, I would suggest (again) giving BT a call.

BTW I think 1470 unblocks the number (ie. it allows your number to be seen by the person you're calling) 141 is the code that witholds your number.

[AndrewJ]

No

Right.

Currently said phone witholds its number all the time 1470 permits call id to show for that call only.

I am after a code to show caller ID all time.

Think you'll need to be talking to BT then, AFAIK that's not something that consumers are able to change.

[AndrewJ]

Ok thank you.

Needs to be changed in data on the exchange, As Raistlin said give BT a call should be something they can do quickly and easily.

Providing the CSR in the callcenter knows what they are doing and has access to the relivent system its a simple case of pressing a few buttons on a computer.
