A Second Line Needed

My dad has a business phone line that is presently locked on a difficult-contract-to-get-out-off with Unicom. To cancel or switch this line back to BT services will require my dad paying almost a £1000 as per Unicom's terms. Presently we only get dial-up services with this line; my dad is retired and leaves on the family farm house with my mother. Unicom broadband charges are too high compared to BT's. My dad can't get out of the contract until the 3rd year of the 3rd anniversary of the contract with Unicom (not sure about those terms). My question is, is it possible to get a new BT line (for home use) that would work independently from the present business line? Is there any solution apart from getting a new line installed? Thanks
Solved!

There's no reason why you can't get a second line at a property. The usual charge is about £128 unless there's some reason why it's particularly difficult to supply a line at your address.

  • UK payroll - second line support

    Hi Guys,
    I am assigned Uk payroll second line support...
    Am looking for some regular issues in UK payroll... can some body help me?
    What are the other areas that I should focus on?
    Regards
    Sirisha

    Check with your previous functional consultant, he should be able to tell regular issues related to your package. Generally once SAP is fully set up and running for some months you may not get problem from SAP config related issues. Mostly issues are with related to processes.
    If you want us to give more suggestions on process related issues and may be you need to paste all process of your organization or tell us where you are working so may be if some one already have idea about that company could tell you more.
    Hope above information is useful.

  • Spry Menu Bar wraps to second line on a few monitors

    Hello-
    I am stuck on a spry horizontal menu bar and have discussed with a few local dreamweaver users and we can't figure this out. I'm using CS4 to create an internal site for my company (sorry, I can't send you link). I tested the site on firefox and explorer on my computer and everything works beautifully. When going through the soft launch one computer out of the six computers who reviewed the site had an issue with my navigation bar. I used the horizontal spry menu bar to create a navigation with six options. The problem computer wrapped the last two to a second line which makes everything weird on pages within the site.
    Screen captures are below. Three images show the main page where the navigation wraps on top of the side column and right column. The second image shows the menu bar wrapping behind the left column on additional site pages which is happening on all additional site pages.
    The code for the spry menu assets should be below the images. If you need additional information, if I didn't provide everything, I'll send it. I'm very new to this and pretty much self-taught. I have taken an online class through ed2go.com, I've asked a ton of questions from other designers using Dreamweaver, and I've watched MANY tutorials online. ANY help you can give would be MUCH appreciated. THANK YOU!!

    Hi, Mel,
    I see that you are using default widths for the list items in the menus. If you reduce the width of the list items, you should be able to settle on a width that works better than 8em and 8.2em.
    Here are the bits that will need editing:
    ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    position: relative;
    text-align: left;
    cursor: pointer;
    width: 8em; /* make this width smaller */
    float: left;

  • How do I add a second line at home?

    I've been trying to find the answer to this question online and have struck out. Verizon's website says that to add a second line at home you can log into your account, go to "My Profile," click on "Lines & Accounts," and then click on "Add Second Line" (or something like that....unfortunately today Verizon's online support system is claiming that online support is not offered in Virginia). When I go to "Lines & Accounts," however, it does not give me the option to add a line—it will only allow me either to de-register my current phone number from online account access or to register another billing number for online access.
    At the moment I am not certain I actually want to order the second line—I just want to price it out to determine whether I would rather get a second line or switch to VOIP service with dry loop DSL. This is why I'd rather run through my options online instead of having to call customer service—it's easier and more efficient to be able to view the options on the screen instead of having to take notes while talking to someone.
    Does anyone know if there is a way to price this out online? Verizon's site has been the target of much profanity from me due to the apparent absence of this feature and due to this utterly ASININE statement that appears when I try to get online support: "Select a Service for Online Help/Verizon does not offer this service in Virginia. You can search or browse Phone Support for the services." I mean, come on, is that some sort of joke??!!
    (I use a Bang & Olufsen two-line cordless phone system tied to a BeoLine base unit, and I've already confirmed that the phone jack into which the BeoLine is plugged is indeed wired for two lines. So that's not an issue.)

    Hello, 
    I've already seen your post on StachExchange and answered you there. So here's the answer: 
    All you need to do is to add solid to the border-bottom property, so it would look like this:
    .groupheader {
    padding-left: 10px !important;
    padding-right: 5px !important;
    border-bottom: 1px #000000 solid ;

  • How to indent second line in a very long heading when creating a table of contents?

    I need to make a table of contents.
    Some of the chapter headings are very long and fill more than a single line.
    When I create my table of contents, I want the second lines to be 'pushed in' in the table.
    Like this
    1 chaper one xxxxxxxxxxx
    2 Chapter two xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    3 Chapter three x xxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
         xxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx
    4 Charpter four xxxxx xxxxx
    5 Chapter five xxxxxxxxxx xxx xxxxx xx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
         xxxxxxxxx xxxx xxxxx
    I thought I had solved it by having the actual chapter headings indented like this, but the table of contents overlooks this/overrules this.

    See also my reply to the duplicate thread:

    Help has arrived! Since the device is currently on pre-order when processing the order online it will only recognize the line eligible. Once you receive the device you may activate it on another line if needed.

  • Column Heading in Excel layout coming to Second Line

    Hi All,
    I am doing an excel Layout using Report Builder 6i. There in excel layout output,
    the cloumn headings are coming in two lines. I mean headings for few last columns are getting wrapped to second line, though corresponding data is coming
    correctly.
    Please help me over this if anyone had faced the same problem...
    Thanks in Advance

    You need to make sure that your column headings in Reports have no 'returns' in them. The text should be all on one line and the text in the layout editor should be no 'taller' than 1 line. Your frame around the column headings should also be no 'taller' than 1 line.
    Hope this helps!!

  • Removal of Old Second Line

    Hi,
    We've been in our house for a short while now, and we've decided to neaten up the mess the previous homeowners left.
    Initially, we thought they'd installed a NTE5 as an extension, but it turns out that it is in fact a complete second line, cabled seperately to the BT hole-in-the-pavement outside our house.
    How much would it be to request an engineer to remove this line? (Or is it even possible?) We really don't need it, and when we activate the line here, we really don't want to get mixed up and activate the second one.
    Finally, I've managed to get in touch with the previous owners and they said they in fact had 3 lines, but they believe they had the third deactivated and removed; I haven't been able to find any evidence of it, but is it possible to make sure that this has been done? I think this one was active on the "unused" pair in the first line, but I'm not sure.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    Hi,
    I would do that, but it goes to a grey BT box on the outside of the house (with the piper emboss) and I really want to get rid of the black cable.
    I opened this box by mistake, an it's just two cables joined together. Is it safe to just clip it there?
    Thanks!

  • Second line with BT Broadband, first line broadban...

    Hi
    My first line was with BT  but I went over to  Sky and I was receiving 4.6MB /667 after much problems at first it settled down to this. As they was a few using the line, I had a second line fitted by BT and had broadband 10GB 20GB they est. 4MB, ok at first it came on and after test it stabled at 3.5Mb, then the first line played up the broadband dropped down  and now is sitting at between 2.8MB / 776. The second line has also drop to 2.6/ 448.  Bt help said to have the master socket moved to cut out any extension so I did and that cost me £150, it hasn't help at I am connected filter into the Master box.  I have contract Sky twice over the matter and they said the BT engineer who came to connected the new line must had done something to they line as they can't get the modem to connect and high then 3Mb. The New BT line was a new line from the box outside my building.  Sky was also saying have the master socket moved to cut out the extensions Extension they put in for the Sky TV boxes.

     Sky are saying I need to go throught BT to have the master socket of the first line moved.

    you have two very similar lines with different suppliers one onADSLMAX up to 8mb service BT the other is an LLU service different technologies
    sky's suggestion of moving the first lines master moved is rubbish and just going to cost you money for no good reason
    you are not being capped because you have two lines
    your noise margin on your BT line is higher than normal if you maintain 3 days stable connection then you can get the forum mods to reset your noise margin to the default 6 this will improve your speed however the sky line is down to them as are any repairs regarding broadband on it

  • Verizon Cloud login for iPad and PC for second line (not primary account holder line)

    I am the primary account holder but the primary line is associated with my wife's phone so I added Verizon Cloud to the second line which is my phone.
    I downloaded the Verizon Cloud app to my iPhone and backed up my data. The Verizon Cloud app did not ask for a password and must have recognized that my device was authorized.
    However, I can not access my Verizon Cloud "account" for my line from my iPad or PC. When I use the account name and password for My Verizon (which is associated with the primary line) I get an error.
    During the setup process of the Verizon Cloud app on my phone I supplied my email address but was never asked to setup a password for my line/device.
    How can I access my line's Verizon Cloud storage from my iPad or PC?
    Does Verizon Cloud only work for the primary account holder?
    Thanks!
    David

    I guess I should have read the Verizon Cloud FAQ #2. For anyone interested in the same answer I'll post it here:
    Can other individuals on my Verizon Wireless account access my Verizon Cloud storage account?No, your Verizon Cloud account is tied to your own individual mobile number. No one else on your account (including the Account Owner) can sign in to your Verizon Cloud account without access to your password for My Verizon.
    If you’re the Account Owner or want to manage the content of a different mobile number, you’ll need tosign in to My Verizon with that mobile number and password, or create a new My Verizon account for that number if it doesn’t already exist.

  • PAP2T second line will not connect

    I have two voip accounts with the same provider and I have two PAP2T adapters (one for each account).  I can get either one to work by themselves.  I need to get both lines working on the same router.  If I hook both PAP2T devices to the router, the second one can never login to it's server.  If I load the line 2 of either device with the other account, the second line can not login to it's server.
    Ideally, I would have just one PAP2T connected using line 1 and 2.
    How do I set up line 2 with the other account?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    sounds like some of the ports may have been blocked.
    May you test those simple tests :
    1) Swap ports 5060 and 5061 between Line1 and Line2 - watch which line will register, if any ...
    2) IF line with port 5060 registers (Line2) and line with port 5061 (Line1) NOT, may you contact your Internet provider (ISP) if for any reason the port 5061 is blocked, also you may contect the VoIP provider, if registration FROM port 5061 is also accepted ...
    3) You may try "nasty trick" and setup SIP ports totaly crazy - for example 5261 and 5262 - or simply any two numbers. There is, in fact, no restriction on SIP SOURCE port (just uzus, that those are USUALY 5060 and increasing), SIP DESTINATION port is (almost) alwayws 5060.
    I use my SPA-1001 on with ports 5261 and 5262 on Line1/Line2 with no problems.

  • Strange line spacing - space seems bigger every second line

    Hi,
    today I discoverd that pages 08 does something special with line spacing. Every second line in my three column layout with text frames seems to have a bigger space. Settings are checked ... can't find anything...
    I used a Myriad Pro, 10 pt
    An ideas? I can send a screenshot vie mail if wanted/needed.
    Cheers
    Stefan

    Sorry this reply is a bit late, but I was looking for a solution to this same problem myself.
    I got this fault also when using the previous version of Pages on Tiger, but it also occurs in Pages '08 as well and on Leopard.
    I have done some checking, and it's not Font. I have a booklet I make every month, and it usually has Times for body text throughout. Some text will have this weird spacing, other text will be normal. It only happens if I use anything other than 'Exactly' for line spacing. It doesn't seem to happen at all in a text box, but text directly on the page is random with this.
    It also translates to a hard copy too, so it's not just a display issue either.
