When Broadband+Homecall bundles became available we moved to Pipex and then on to Sky for a better all round package keeping the same number.<br />The web page above shows that phone numbers starting <br />01237 70xxxx<br />belong to "BSKYB LLU Assets Limited" ( LLU= local loop unbundling ). So when we moved house Sky probably issued a "stop and reissue" rather than a move number. As they can only / wanted to issue a 01237 70xxxx numbers that's what we ended up with.<br />Typical telco/ocd mentality, the ability to move numbers between vendors locally is sacrificed for organising numbers into neat rows of boxes.Gannetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09966028250327262833noreply@blogger.com
