After my experience with BT over these last 3 weeks (not knocking them, honest ... just one error at the main centre putting me in the wrong queue; my friend related a tale to me that has happened (I think) in the Willows Lane area over the last 2 weeks.
Friend rings her sister-in-law and 'phone is answered by a complete stranger. "Are you after Mrs.S?" the lady asks. "Yes" says my friend. "Well" replies the lady "We are in a right mess here, workmen have been digging up the road and cut through the telephone cables/wires ... BT have restored the lines, but have got their wires crossed. I will give you my number and that will get you through to your sister-in-law .. my callers have to ring your sister-in-laws number to get me !". Lots of people affected with internet, etc.
Yes, it worked. Wonder what will happen when the bills for outgoing calls come through. You couldn't make it up could you. 'Tis funny though ...
