Hev&Jon Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Hello Everybody,I've recently installed a Livebox which gives me broadband internet access and cheaper calls to the UK. I have been given a new telephone number (beginning 08) and I am able to make calls (to the UK and France) with my telephone plugged into the Livebox. I am also able to receive calls from my French mobile and my UK mobile. However I am unable to receive calls from my father in the UK (BT landline) and my husband is unable to call the 08 number from his UK mobile.Has anybody experienced similar problems and can anybody tell me how I can fix it?Thanks in advance,Heather.

Cassis Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Does your old France Telecom number (asuming you had one) still work when your dad rings it?Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cassis Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 In that case, I wouldn't even bother giving people your new number, just let them ring on the old FT number. I'm not sure why all the companies bother issuing new numbers - maybe it's a technical reason. We've had Club Internet and Freebox numbers issued to us and we've never once used them.Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
