No worries John.

I wonder whether I have no probs with accessing 195 is that I still pay Bt
for line rental, or as you say it may well be Tiscali sales team don't know
what services they do provide?!!

Cheers,

Phil

Hello Phil,

Thanks for your information. Tiscali is looking fine as a provider so far.
Thanks for clearing the 195 Directories issue up. It seems that Tiscali
sales simply don't know what they do and don't provide.

Regards,
John.
