Dial *#234# which will tell you whether the service is active on your line. You will get one of three responses:

1. Callers identities will be displayed (service is active on line and switched on)

2. Callers identities will not be displayed (service is active on line but is switched off)

3. Sorry the service requested is not available. (service hasn't been activated on the switch)

If you receive the second message then just hang up and then from a new dial tone key *234#, this will switch the service on.

Have a look here:

That link shows the userguides for each of the old TW franchise areas. I think there is some wording on the front cover that states the switch type installed for that particular franchise.
