False Originating Line Number being sent across th...

I am having problems with people ringing my domestic line and saying that they have a missed call message from my number although I have never called them.
Up to 40 calls a day from mobile and landline numbers.  Mainly during working day or early evening.  Very few at weekends.
This has been going on for over a week.  I now can not answer my landline due to people being abusive when I say that I have never called them.
I have no modem or Sky box etc on the line, only Broadband.  Also my billing shows that I am not making these calls.
Obviously somehow my OLI [ Originating Line Number ] has been hacked or incorrectly programmed onto someone else’s out going line.  I would suggest that this is a business line for a call centre or power dialler.  One caller left an abusive message on my answer phone telling me to stop repeatedly calling them.
Can anybody suggest how I can track down the line that has been making these calls as has my phone number programmed against it.
If I ring my mobile or another land line the correct OLI is shown.
Many thanks,
Astolat
PS I am a retired PABX and Call Centre telephone engineer.

I can sympathise with you this has happened to me in the last three weeks and it has driven me insane.  BT have been of little help despite daily calls.  I felt as though I was a joke and that I was in fact making this up.  I was refused access to BT Managers after numerous requests for an escalation.  I have spoken to two supervisor at call centres and three priority team managers.  I have written and e mailed BT and not had anyone contact me.
The result was far from satisfactory and I had to suggest to them the supposed experts that I had been spoofed.  Now it appears they agree after being referred to the Nuisance Call Team.  I have had no proof that this is the case and was offered two months free line rental as restitution.  I has so far cost me 7 hours on the phone, loads of abusive calls and threatened with violence plus the cost of replacement phone as suggested by one agent.  
I am less than impressed and I have only been with BT since mid February.

  • Original Picture not being sent in email!

    Good Morning all, So here's my question and thanks for your help. I made a duplicate photo (command+d) which is what I do to every picture I want to add effects to so I know which one's I have altered, so I was trying to send my friend the original and the one I added effects to so he could see the difference, and the only one he can see is the one I added effects to. I got on the phone with Apple care, and each picture has a different name ending in .jpg. I have tried several times to send the original, even by itself, and on my friends end, it shows an attachment, but nothing is there. Does anyone know why I can no longer send the original? I have also tried repairing my permission's but that didn't work. Thanks again for your help!

    Try exporting the original (File -> Export) and see it that works. If it does we’ll know the library is okay and can look at the mailing process. IF it doesn’t we’ll need to look at the Library.
    Also, how do you go about emailing? What app do you use?
    Regards

  • How to find proc/func name from package name and line number?

    Hi,
    We are using the pl/sql call stack dump (dbms_utility.format_call_stack) for some debugging purposes. But in the case of a package body execution, the dump does not return the name of the procedure/function that is being executed, but only the name of the package and the line number being executed. So, we have a requirement wherein we need to extract the type and name of a package subunit from the package name and line number.
    e.g.
    From the information package 'A', line number 739
    we should be able to deduce that line 739 is a part of *'function A.f'*
    Does the oracle database provide any native mechanism (PL/SQL packages or otherwise) to support such functionality? If it does not, how can we achieve the desired result?
    Thanks in advance,
    Shashank

    The approach we are currently planning to take up is this :
    1. Write PL/SQL code to parse the entire source (user_source) and build a database table with a structure like this :
    PACKAGE_NAME | UNIT_TYPE | UNIT_NAME | START_LINE | END_LINE
    =============================================
    A | PROCEDURE | P1 | 20 | 345
    A | FUNCTION | F1 | 347 | 629
    etc..
    2. Start PL/SQL package execution.
    3. Keep dumping call stack snapshots whenever a custom debug procedure is called.
    4. Dump the package name and line number to a log file.
    5. Using the package name and line number, query the table built in step 1 and build the final report which shows the control flow in a readable form.
    What we want is to get rid of step 5 and by some means get the logic to extract the unit type and name in step 4 itself.
    Keep them coming..
    Thanks and regards,
    Shashank

  • Wrong data being sent thru XI

    Hi All
    I have a strange problem. This is the scenario:
    Employee related changes are to be sent to payroll every night. We have a report which fetches all the changes in employee data on that pirticular day. It would call the proxy and send all the data thru XI.
    By debugging the report, i came to know that the report is fetching the correct data and sending that data by calling the proxy. But, when the scheduled job runs every night which runs this report, wrong data is being sent across. Completely different data is being sent during the job execution. What might be the problem?
    The report when run manually, is fetching right data and sending it. But, when it is run as a scheduled job, wrong data is being sent. I checked the job details, and everything seems to be fine. What all can i check?
    Many Thanks
    Chandra Sekhar

    > Variants seems to be fine. I checked them again.
    > Completely different employee data is being sent thru XI.
    > If there is any change in the XI message structure, or anywhere, data should not be sent when i am running the report manually. Am i right??
    Yes, you are right.
    > Correct data is being sent when i am running the report manually. But then, when the scheduled job runs in the night, i see completely different data being sent. This is strange to me.
    Can you run your job as execute immediately with a break point in your report & check if you are getting the same data.
    Chek the report name once again. I know you must have already checked the report name user name etc.. in your job.

    Hi Francois,
    Actually I want to check and show the message when the item_name is entered i.e WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM TRIGGER.
    I put the following code in WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM TRIGGER
    Declare
         curnum number;
         dupnum number;
         cur_item varchar2(100);
         v_alert_no number;
         p_linerec varchar2(100);
    Begin
    curnum := TO_NUMBER(:System.Trigger_Record);
    cur_item := :Lines.Item_number;
    First_Record;
    p_linerec := :Lines.Item_number;
    LOOP
    If p_linerec = cur_item then
         dupnum := :Lines.Line_num;
         set_alert_property('ALERT_STOP',ALERT_MESSAGE_TEXT,
    'Duplicate Item Found,Update QTY in Original line number '||dupnum);
       V_ALERT_NO := show_alert('ALERT_STOP');
       :LINES.ITEM_NUMBER := NULL;
    :LINES.ITEM_DESCRIPTION:= NULL;
    :LINES.ITEM_REVISION:= NULL;
    :LINES.ITEM_CATEGORY:= NULL;
    elsIF (:System.Last_Record = 'TRUE') THEN
         Go_Record(curnum);
         EXIT;
      ELSE
         Next_Record;
      END IF;
    END LOOP;
    End; But I am getting the following error,
    FRM-40737:Illegal Restricted Procedure
    FIRST_RECORD in WHEN-VALIDATE-TRIGGERand then
    its showing for first line itself.
    Duplicate Item found.Update QTY in Original line number 1so I put the condition
    If :Lines.Line_num > 1 then --Only to check when the block having more than one record.but now it checking from second record and displaying,
    Duplicate Item found.Update QTY in Original line number 2 --(instead of Update QTY in Original line number 1)Can you tell me how can I change the above code for my requirement?
    Thank you.

  • Just setting up iCloud on my iMac, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number stil

    Just setting up iCloud on my iMac 10.9.2, my problem is when trying to sign out/off from iCloud it comes up with a verification code that is being sent to my land line, I'd changed the numbers in my Apple ID and they show as changed but the land line number still shows as number that the verification code is being sent, I prompt "Don't have access to this phone" and that's no help at all.  The only way I can sign out /off from iCloud is to uncheck everything that I wanted to keep in the cloud????
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Skip the iCloud sign in for now.
    Once you reach the home page, go to settings and sign out of FaceTime and Messages.  This should also sign you out of iCloud.
    Go to iCloud in settings and sign in with the correct Apple ID.
    If that does not work
    Skip the iCloud sign in
    Go to Apple ID.apple.com and sign in
    Change your Apple ID to the old one
    Delete iCloud account on your device with the old Apple ID and the same password.
    Go back to the website, change your Apple ID back to the current one. You will receive an email to verify the account. Verify first.
    Sign into iCloud on your device with the correct Apple ID and password

  • How do I change the phone number attached to my Icloud? All the codes and stuff are being sent to my old number.

    How do I change the phone number attached to my Icloud? All the codes and stuff are being sent to my old number.

    Hello Babyygrl23,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your iCloud Apple ID has a phone number associated with it that you would like to update. If this is the case, after signing in to the linked website below, you will see a section on the left side of the screen labeled Phone Numbers. You can edit the phone number associated with that account from there.

    All of my texts are now being sent through my email after the new update. How do I change this back to just sending with my phone number?

    Try settings -- messages -- send & recieve and see if your email and phone number are in there and if there is only a check mark next to your email address.  If so just check off your phone number and try that.
