Good point, i know voip.co.uk and voipfone allow calls to 999 not sure about gradwell though.
Something else to think about.

Then again most people use some type of cordless phone these days so they also don't have use of a phone line during power failure. I also thought VM phone lines don't work if there is a power failure as they have no backup power source in the cabs or am i wrong?
I know BT have battery backup in the exchange.
