Re: Phone question

Ring up and ask if you don't believe it.
Maybe I'm thinking of Nynex and Bell Cable Media areas only.

If you're in Staffs, I honestly don't believe you'll get any joy.
Orangebird, come back to when you have learned some manners.

Well, I am living in Cambridge and have CLID on my NTL line.

Manners? I least I have FACTS. You info is crap, and basing what you think you know around old geography is not excusable. You stated that ntl do not provide CLID any further south than Leeds. Which is WRONG. End of.

So please, don't even bother thinking of coming back to me until you get your 'facts' right.

Re: Phone question

Ah well, you learn something new everyday. I think it still applies for what are classed as NW customers on ex-Nynex systems, which I think all of Staff's is.

Apparently it is wrong, but I am referring to a customer based in what is classed as NW on ex-Nynex/BCM systems.

You need to calm down, you'll live longer. There's a fact for you.
You still need some manners.

*sigh* No, it's not. Staffs is an orginal ntl (ComTel actually) region. NOT Nynex. And also considered up until a year ago to be in the South Region.

Calm down? I'm sorry, but I'm too busy pmsl at your posts.

Do you enjoy making yourself look silly?

Re: Phone question

If I'm wrong, then I'll say so. If you're wrong and caller id can't be applied to that line, will you admit as much?

As far as making myself look silly, I do it all the time. You wouldn't be the first, or most important, person to point it out.

Absolutely.

However, _simons_ account is on the ITC system. CLID is available to subscribers on the ITC system. I don't think it'll come to me admitting I'm wrong on this.

Re: Phone question

Fair enough then.

In future, do you mind waving your reputation with a little more delicacy? You'll have someone's eye out.

...and you know his account is on this system how, exactly?

I'll wave my reputation around as delicately as you wave your 'facts' around, how's that?

Because I work for ntl and have access to the postcode checker which tells me the relevant subscriber system for any given area. Feature availability is detemined by subscriber system ie ITC, which DOES offer CLID.

utter tripe, OB is correct, in fact the whole of what was South Central is able to have Caller ID on their phone, this includes, Thames Valley, Swindon, Oxford, Coventry, Warwickshire, Staffordshire, Andover, Northants and Hemel

OB you are right - Thorn you are wrong now say sorry

and i know as i spent almost 4 years working in that area
