Okay, thank you for confirming this.

 

This will be why you are restricted to where you can call on your landline @Jackfate.

 

Many thanks,

Hello @Jackfate,

 

Welcome back! Thanks for posting.

 

I am sorry to see that your landline is having issues.

 

Just to be clear you are only not able to call other postcodes and international? 

 

Many thanks,

I wish they had told me that when I put it on. Seems a real problem to restrict some calls when what i wanted to do was stop nuisance calls.

 

still, least that answers it. How do I get it taken off?
