That explains it.  I've never used the card. Just memorised the number.
So, if your wife quotes the number on the card she originally got, and
gives them her name, she should get through. Don't know if you have to
inform BT when you marry or divorce, and change your surname as a
result. 

Best,
Clive

Alexander ,

Normally, all the 195 service ask for is your code (on the card), and
your name.

You can call them from any number, including mobiles.

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone can advise me regarding the best way to resolve the
following issue.

My wife Carol was given a card for the 195 directory enquiries service
when she was studying at Queen Alexandra College in Harborne in 1992.  I
wasn't studying there at the time, but Carol informs me that all the
cards were linked to the number used at the time for the college
switchboard, and although Carol does remember occasionally using her
Directory Enquiry card when she was at college, she has not used it
since, as she believes that the cards have to be linked to a particular
number, I.E., the owner of the card has to own or have the use of their
own landline telephone.


What I'm wondering really, is which bit of BT should I speak to on
Carol's behalf to enable us to either arrange for a new card, or inform
BT that Carol's circumstances have changed and in view of this can she
update the details linked to her old Directory enquiry card so that she
can use it again.

Thank you in advance for any replies.
