Hi

When I was a teenager we used to call the operator (BT 100 ?) and ask them to check the line.

Of course that was before Yodafone, ChalkChalk, X-Static, HeHe, etc..

Is it still the same? [ Kev? We're nearly the same age, wot do yu remember? ]

Maybe it's a tied line?!
Remember them?

First mobile I had was from the (former) main operator - the one with the Prancing Prat logo!
(I should add that I heard that from a staff member!)

             In the days  before telephones   had dials,     you would just lift the handset and wait for the operator to answer.

You had to press the button a few times to alert the operator, otherwise they might have thought it was someone just dusting the telephone and who had knocked the handset off it's perch!

Hi all, Thanks for all help.  Kev, Did contact Ancestry, "  BY Contact on Line."   They confirmed a full refund,

and the "Number" is still not ringing, for me.  and I haven't flited over night, still in Cambs.

Had my t/phone line checked NO FAULT FOUND  .

Well at least these post seem to have sent some of you down memory lane, and created a few grins.
