Re: Old phones and the new BT internet-only phonelines
Having a bit of a sort out in my garage today, I put away my old BT Statesman push button phone somewhere "safe", and found a space where it was clearly visible when you walked in. (If you saw my garage, you would know what I meant!)
This has been kept for many years as we only use a cordless system. It is for proving if any fault is due to my landline and not the cordless phone, so as not to incur a callout charge.
It made me think of this thread and I wondered if BT would charge for a callout if your connection is ok but the "apparatus" your phone plugs in to is at fault. I expect they would?
I am still on adsl and use a phone landline, so my query may not be valid, as I am not certain exactly how the new system works.
Thanks, Rob
