I have a London postcode (as I am in London ) yet I seem to share fault numbers with people miles away with a Surrey postcode.

Checked out the locations of where the IP's on the traceroutes and some do say Crawley, but I am guessing they are just registered there and not actually at that location. Could be wrong though!

I'm 13 or 14 miles from the Linx locations but it wouldn't surprise me if I routed through Crawley and Poole and back up again, making it a 170 mile trip

I asked the techie that. He said the post code is important. I expect they want to eliminate problems at street level as well as UBR.
