I thought our package wae very reasonable indeed. Well we like it.
Could your aunt's telephone be faulty? 1471 should work. You could plug
another phone in to test if it is annoying. I know I like to have 1471.


1471 should work on all phones. What you pay for via BT is caller
display and a list of the last 50 callers etc. That's usually in a
package with the service that lets you bounce your phone calls to
another number temporarily.


1471 doesn't work if you have Virgin. It's a BT thing.
Once you decide to go elsewhere for your broadband plus phone service you
will lose it.


We are with Virgin and get 1471! Could it be a problem with the phone?


Dunno, she certainly cannot get 1471 since she went with Virgin. Maybe BT
have not noticed you've gone away yet.
afaik 1471 is exclusively a BT service.
I could be wrong.
