I've got fed up with being over charged for BB with no phone that I'm thinking about giving up my BT line and getting the BB/phone bundle. I'm on 10M so I can get 30M and phone for the same price.

I want to take my number with me but I can't see much detail about that on the site. After reading this post:

I'm concerned that VM will cock up the line or number transfer, how straightforward should this transfer be?

I thought it would involve them just taking over the BT line but it seems they put a new cable into the BB cabinet. My BB is quite old (originally NTL 512k), how can I find out if it will support phone before I commit to it?

Would I better off getting the phone line on a new number first then transferring?
