Just a letter drop through my door.
It seems that Ofcom are changing the "rules" as from 1st Oct. this year.
When dialling a LOCAL call from a land line, we will also have to include the area code too.
I can see the logic, as it'll free up millions of numbers.
But it got me thinking, who really uses a land line for personal calls in this day and age?
What with the unlimited mobile text / call packages that are available these days.
I have one (phone that is) but have it on silent due to the increasing number of sales / crap calls.
And can't remember the last time I actually dialled a call on it.
TBH the only real reason the line is there is for internet.
Just curious.
