Sadly its true, Virgin in the Teesside area does not/will not support pulse dial technology. I've contacted both a rep via my phone and e-mail and they said sadly they no longer offer pulse dialing services in my area. As for my two phones if I plug them into my Virgin line they receive a dial tone and will receive incoming calls but obviously I can not dial out on them. Another chap I know in the next town has a BT line and his bakelite phone can make out going calls so I can only assume this is a local issue with Virgin.
This leaves me looking for some sort of pulse to tone converter, ideally an external device but there doesn't appear to be much available in the UK.
