Hi Ibby, I have to say that this hasn't been my experience on 3. To be fair though, I never actually asked if I needed to register. When you phone 195, 3 verify the details with BT anyway. Have you been refused a number?

Unfortunately, if you are on 3UK we have been advised that we have to complete a form which must also be signed by our doctor to be able to access free directory enquiries. I have on had to complete a form once and that was when 195 was first released. We have had mobile phone contracts with Voda, T-Mobile, and O2 and after explaining to them that we are eligible, the provided 195 access without any further form filling and/or any further questions. The 3UK stores do not know anything about the 195 service and their customer service call centres are in India which in our experience to-date has been somewhat trying to say the least! Whilst 3UK have an office here in the UK, they will not discuss any matter and their operators will only connect you to the call centre in India. We most certainly will not be renewing our contracts when they come up again for renewal and we will go back to the other network providers. Ibby Karbhari . Phone: 020 7193 8755 .
