Hi
I recently moved home and moved my NTL services as well(phone, tv and bb). I couldnt keep my existing phone number because although I was still in the same city I had moved into a different zone(at least, thats what the engineer told me). It was a slight hassle having to get a new number but there was nothing I could do.
Anyway, the problem is that the number that they gave me obviously belonged to someone else beforehand and I am being constantly plagued with phone calls for this person and most of them are from debt recovery agencies and credit agencies and I also get phone calls during the night where they hang up when I answer. I try to explain to them(the ones that speak anyway) that the person they are looking for doesnt live at my address and I have simply been given their number when I moved in. Obviously thinking that I am lying they simply keep phoning back using different people each time.
Before I go through the drudgery that is NTL CS phone queue can anyone tell me if it is possible to change your number? does it cost anything?
thanks
