I remember phone day!! I was working on the BT call centre in Bristol which had been hurriedly put together to help confused peeps.

I remember taking a call from a delightful old dear who I couldn't get to understand that her code was changing from 0275 to 01275 and a lot of codes were having a 1 put in. But her daughter's number was changing from 0272 to 0117 and she also had to put a nine in front of the number. But no nine was to go in front of her number when she gave it to other people.

It was hard going! Especially to all the small businesses who had to change all their business cards, they moaned and moaned! No websites to update back then!
