Moving home - need info on existing operator

Dear forum users,
I am a BT customer , and I am moving home, from Bermondsey to Tooting (both London postcodes).
I used the on-line "moving home" link to proceed with the trasnfer, but at some point I had a warning:
"We can supply phone service at your new address We need to install a new line at your new address. An engineer will need to visit, you can pick a date for the visit before you complete your order.
We are unable to transfer your existing number to your new address"
If possible I would like to have more details.
1. I would like why BT cannot transfer my number to the new address. Is this a technical issue or is it because I changed zone and the numbers in my new place have a different area code?
2. Is it possible to know if there is a contract active with another operator at the new address? I mean, apart form guessing or opening the previous tennant's post, which I don't want to do?
I do not want to disclose my new address, but my secret hope is that a BT customer service operator is lurking this forum and will be able to check these details using my cusomer number
Kind regards,
CdA

1. BT can only transfer numbers within the same exchange. If you are moving to a different exchange, you'll get a new number. Be aware that several different exchanges can share the same STD code, so you need to know the name of the actual exchange.
2. It's not easy. Do you know if there's a line there already? If there is, you may be able to get some useful information by plugging a phone in. if the line's live, try dialling 17070 and see if you get a recorded message.

Need info on windows xp pro purchase

A Windows 8.1 Product Key will not work for a Windows XP install.

Hi,
We wont use the Win 8.1 Product Key - We will Purchase new Windows 8.1 License for the fourth PC but install our copy of Win XP on the machine (we have only 3 License that we used for the older 3 machines).
Carey's reply only speaks to the technical aspects of installing a dual boot environment. It says nothing about licensing which is what I think you are asking about. I do not believe that you can purchase a Windows 8.1 License and apply it to a
Windows XP install. You need to enter in the Product Key when the OS is installed and I seriously doubt that the XP install will accept the 8.1 Key. If you don't have a 4th key for XP you won't be able to have a legal copy installed.

Online moving home setup

Hi all, I am an existing broadband/tv customer and am trying to move my services to a new address via the online moving home part of the website. Everything was going well until it asks me to decide on my directory be it ex-directory or via the phonebook. No matter which option I choose it states I have not picked a valid option and wont let me progress beyond this page. I have tried keeping my original number and changing to a new one but still the same problem. I see other people have had the same problem and have fixed it but it doesnt say how?! Thanks in advance, Nathan

Exasperated moving home with BT

Moving home with BT has turned from being easy to being a totally destructive experience and one that looks like it will cost me a fortune.
Having given 5 weeks notice BT decided to text me 3 days before the move cancelling my home move, new number, call forwarding .. everything. Explanation?.. sky (the provider at the house I am going to) have not cancelled the line.
I spent 4 hrs on the phone to BT and they advised that as sky had not canceled the line thewy had to cancel, nothing they could do and even though I was moving in 3 days (2 now) my phone / BB, the lot was all cancelled and I would have to "call them when I got to the new house and start it all again"... didnt care that I work from home, as a Web Designer !!!
Sky were advised over 2 weeks ago but BT refused to call sky so I did... they said that it was their policy to not cancel a line till the day of the move and BT knew this.... not according to anyone at BT !!... so it seems that I am the first person to ever move with a BT line to a house currently with a phone from SKY... all at BT accept this is not possible but noone can explain why as they havnt heard of this before... still, no matter, its my problem and "call us when you move and we will see what we can do... or you can go online and book"... what with I asked?... you are cutting me off "oh yes, well call us from your mobile then !!"
Ok, well I cant believe that I should be treated like this... 25 years with BT and they are screwing up not only my house move but my business too all because they cant be bothered to do anything that may or may not help.
So, below is the copy of the email I sent earlier today to Sir Michael Rake (BT Chairman)... I will be interested to see if I get a reply as although now I accept that BT are going to hurt me (oh and they wont even let me go to SKY without charging 12 months) I DO want to know or at least be reassured that I am not being "turned over" by the people at the call centres.
Can anyone help... email content to follow below...
Dear Sir Michael,
I have been a customer of BT for over 20 years but I felt I
had to let you know about the total shambles that BT are creating regarding my
home move. I will reduce the details down vastly so as not to take up too much
of your time but suffice to say I was on the phone for 4.5hrs yesterday to BT
in total.
1)      I
booked a home move weeks ago, all was fine a provisional new number was given
and although I could not have BT infinity at the new address I was offered the
best other package available.
2)      I
am moving on 22nd Sept (2 days)
3)      I
received a text message yesterday saying “your order has been cancelled”. I
received this while I was out so went straight home and called BT.
4)      I
was advised by home move dept that my telephone, broadband, new number and
installation had all been cancelled since the phone line I was moving to had
not been cancelled. I was told to get the phone line at the other end cancelled
and reorder.
5)      I
spoke to the estate agents and then the sellers who advised that they has
advised sky 10 days ago that they were moving
6)      I
called BT and told them... “no its not cancelled on our system can’t help you”
I was told. We cant reopen the order so you will have to start it all again.
7)      I
called SKY myself to be told that although they were different from everyone
else they as a company don’t cancel lines until the move date as if they did it
would screw up their own systems so they would not be cancelling till 22nd
and this was well known by BT.
8)      Called
BT back, no, not heard that before and nothing they could do.
9)      Can
I move from BT I asked?... you will be charged 12 months as you are signed up
till Sept 2012.
10)   I
said I couldn’t believe I was the first BT customer ever to move to a house
which currently has sky. Everyone agreed that this couldn’t be the case but
offered no other explanation.
11)   I
called and asked for customer relations department... “we don’t have one” I was
advised, each department looks after their own complaints. I was however put
through to an Indian guy (sorry didn’t get his name) who said he wold take
ownership and get everything sorted for me over night and would call me 10-12am
today.
12)   He
called as promised at 11am and said he would put me through to home move. After
explaining the situation AGAIN they said that if they put an order in today it
would be 11 working days and would likely get cancelled anyway. They said “best
thing to do is ring us when you get to the new property on your mobile and we
can do a new order on Thursday... if the line is cancelled). Again they offered
no explanation and agreed that I could not be the first person to move to a
house with a sky line.
13)   I
work from home as a web designer so you can imagine that internet connection is
quite important.
14)   Yesterday
the only bit of hope I was offered was by a lady who agreed it was a mess and
gave me a free 30 day hot spot access (as my existing phone will be cancelled
on Thursday I wouldn’t be able to use this currently free service) but at least
I have this access as long as I can find a hot spot where I am moving to.
15)   I
am afraid by now BT had worn me out and I accept that I will have to go without
a phone and my businesses will have to stop for as long as BT choose to keep me
offline. However what I cant accept is that I am the first person to move to a
house where there is currently a sky connection... I just cant be the first
person and if I am not then this surely must have happened (or not) before or
BT must have a policy for this.
16)   30
mins ago I rang and asked where would I go to if I wanted to escalate a
complaint. I was told to hold as again “we don’t have a complaints or customer
relations department”. I was then told that a Manager called Louise Jones would
look into my question and call me within 48 hrs... not a fat lot of good as I
am moving before then ... but I gave my mobile number for her to call anyway. I
was not offered anything else and to be honest feel like I have been kicked
down the lane till Thursday.
I can see now that I will end up in Market Rasen (where I am
moving to) on Thursday, no phone, no internet, no contract and even my call
forwarding service which I have paid for wont work as there is no number for it
to go to... so no one will be able to call me and my clients will be less than
impressed.
After giving so much notice (at least 5 weeks) to then be
cancelled just 3 days before a move with a totally implausible explanation (as
I just can’t be the first) I’m sure you will agree appears just a bit harsh. I
know as a residential customer I am not that important but this could and
possibly will impact a great deal on my business and income and no one at BT
appears to care at all.
I accept that I am pretty stuffed but while I know that I am
going to suffer I really do want to know if I am the very first person who has
ever moved to a house where sky provides service and if not then is this what
happens to everyone?
For your information I am:
(removed)
I appreciate your time and just hope you can at least get
someone to answer what would seem to be a reasonably easy question that will at
least reassure me that I am not being badly treated.
Best wishes
Dominic
Parker

Moving Home - at my wits end!

I placed a moving home order on the 12th April for both phone and broadband with an installation date of the 29th April. I ONLY placed my order with BT because they had the quickest installation dates..hah! We were moving from one rural location to another and the house we were moving into had been in possession of a phone line for 30 years, or thereabouts.
My broadband order was cancelled on the 13th due to a "problem" with my phone line and when I spoke to BT I was told my broadband order would be re-raised on the 30th April the day after my line was activated. I wasn't happy but it was what it was and it was only a day...right?
29th April arrived, some 10 days after we had moved into the property, and a sub-contractor arrived first thing and was really nice and helpful. We however had no dial tone by the time he finished but he said it would be down to the guys at the exchange to "switch the phone on" and it might be midnight before it happened. So off went the contractor and we waited, irked, until lunchtime when surprise surprise a BT engineer arrived at the door.
The engineer informed us there was no line available for us and until BT provided one we would not be able to get a phone installed let alone internet. However as this was a "provision issue" it would be dealt with expediently and should only take a couple of days.
As disheartened as I was there was no choice but to "suck it up" which I did until about 3pm when another BT Engineer called. This engineer informed us that there was a line for us but it was broken somewhere in the pipework and it could, and probably would take weeks to fix, or might not even be fixed at all!
So the following day I called BT and had my very first dealing with BT India. BT India assured me that I would have a working line within 2 days and the engineers had just reported a minor fault. Wednesday arrived and of course there was no line but another call to BT had me guaranteed a working line by Friday. Friday came and went with no line and BT India promising an activation date a few days in the future.
This...farce has continued since then with date after date being guaranteed and missed, requests of speaking to supervisors and/or managers ignored or just refused outright and promise after promise of someone calling me back to give me a reliable timeline of resolution.
I have spent well over £100 (probably well over £200) in calling BT and spending hours and hours on hold, being passed from pillar to post all calls conducted on a mobile phone, which was specifically purchased because of this nightmare, because there is no public phone box close to where I live.
Today however, really took the biscuit. Yesterday during one of my numerous calls to BT the person dealing with me sent out my broadband hub, even though I still have no working phone line, with an expected delivery date of today. Of course it never arrived today, which was no real surprise as everything BT has promised has not materialised, but turns out it DID arrive at my OLD ADDRESS - the one I left on the 19th April!!!
I am almost pulling my hair out here I just want to know when will I get my phone line and broadband working and will BT reimburse me for all the additional expense I have incurred calling BT India who have no idea what they are doing?

Moving Home / Lack of Customer Service / Cancellat...

I write to express my complete astonishment and disgust with the level of service BT has offered to me as a valued long standing customer.
I have been a customer of BT for approximately 4 years, taking out a phone line, unlimited broadband, BT vision and Sky Sports, amounting to a considerable charge of around £42.00 per month. I have used these products constantly during this period and have been very happy with the service.
In mid February 2012 I phoned to inform BT that I was moving home shortly and would like to switch all service to a new address. I was told that I needed to call back when my current line had been taken over by the new tenant, at which time I could then move my services.
On Thursday 1st March I rang BT to inform them that my line had been taken over by the new tenant and that I now wished to move my contract over. I was informed that I needed to take out a new contract which would then waive any connection charges. I was more than happy with this and asked to set up the new account. The lady at BT who I was speaking to informed me that after running a line check there was an issue with the new property in respect of the supply to it. I informed her that the previous tenant in the new property had a BT phone line with all BT sockets but had obviously cancelled it on moving out. She informed me she would run some more tests and ring me back the following day on the Friday 2nd March. BT did not contact me at any time on the Friday.
On Saturday 3rd March I rang BT back very disgruntled with the lack of service offered. I spoke to a gentleman who checked my account and system notes and stated he didn't know why I hadn't been contacted back. He informed me that I could take out a new account and waive the connection fees. He run a check on the line but informed me that it was coming back as a black line, and that he would need to book an engineer to come out to the property to check the connection. He was very helpful in his nature and suggested that I plugged a phone into the BT sockets and dialled 17070 to check for a line and number. He stated that as it was the weekend he couldn't book an engineer till Monday but he would personally phone me back by 12pm on Monday 5th March to check with me regards any current phone line and if necessary book the engineer.
At 1.00pm on Monday 5th March I had not received any phone call from BT. I can't say that I was surprised given BT's lack of customer service over the previous few days. I proceeded to phone BT again at my expense on my mobile phone to be greeted by a very helpful gentleman who again took me through the same details as previously had been stated. I informed him of my disappointment of BT's customer service, to which he apologised and tried to set up a new account for me. On attempting to set up all my services I was told that it kept failing on the BT system when it reached the broadband page. He suggested that I set up the phone line to instigate the new account and once live I could then upgrade my account to include broadband, BT vision and Sky Sports.
Although not happy with this I accepted the proposal to which he then attempted to book an engineer. He promptly informed me that the next engineer available would be on Monday 26th March 2012, a full 3 weeks delay!! He then informed me the broadband could then be initiated but with an additional lead time of a further 5-7 days. Thus bringing the whole episode up to a total of 4 weeks, not including the time already wasted by BT in the previous week.
I proceeded to inform the gentleman that this was an unacceptable amount of time coupled with the inconvenience and lack of service, and that I would now cancel my contract with BT.
After coming off the phone to BT, I proceeded to go onto the internet where within 10mins I had set up an account with Plusnet for broadband. I received a text message 2 hours later from Plusnet to inform me that my phone line was now live and gave details of my new phone number together with delivery details of my new home hub and an expected broadband start date within 3-5 days. Now that's quality service.
I have since received a final bill from BT stating cancellation charges of £61.13 to be paid by 22nd March 2012 and also a returns envelope to post back all the equipment.
Please can BT inform me whether this is an acceptable standard of service that a long standing customer expects?
Please can you inform me why BT have difficulty in moving my account to a new address when a new provider can initiate within hours?
How can BT charge me a cancellation fee when I have attempted to continue my service but BT could not offer the service within a reasonable time frame?
Under the Supply of Goods & Service Act 1982, please inform me if BT believe they have met the requirements of the legislation;
- That BT have carried out the service with reasonable care and skill
- That BT have carried out the work in reasonable time
- That BT ensure the work will be carried out at a reasonable cost
I am totally disgusted with BT and the level of service offered, the inconvenience caused, the wasted costs and time I have incurred trying to move my service and the overall unprofessional nature of your business.
I have sent a personal letter to Ian Livingston - CEO of BT - can't wait for the comical reply to that!!
Update 13th March 2012: Just received an obnoxious call from BT Customer Services stating the cancellation charges of £61.13 will stand as per an auto renewal contract which expires in August, even though BT cannot offer the service I require in a reasonable amount of time! Is it acceptable to wait 4 weeks for Broadband when I am an existing customer?? I think legislation, OFCOM & Ombudsman are firmly on my side! Great service BT!!

Hello,
That means it can find the Hard Drive, or can't find the things needed for booting.
See if DU even sees it.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

Bug in View Criteria for EXISTS operator

Hello!
I have two VO:
DEP (ID, TITLE, STATUS)
EMP (ID, ID_DEP, NAME)
and viewlink DEP.ID <- EMP.ID_DEP
in DEP VO i create view criteria and add two items:
* DEP.STATUS <> 1000
* the EMPVO with EXISTS operator (and after that add condition EMP.NAME contain :nName (bind var))
start app, set "john" in search field, press button "search" and in debug console i found sql for searching in DEP:
SELECT *

DEP.TITLE,
FROM DEP DEP
where (DEP.STATUS is null OR DEP.STATUS <> 1000)) QRSLT
WHERE ((((EXISTS (SELECT 1
FROM EMP EMP
WHERE ((UPPER(EMP.NAME) LIKE
UPPER('%' || :nName || '%')))
AND (ID = EMP.ID_DEP))))))
in last row present error, must be:

coz if no "QRSLT", sql parser think what need compare EMP.ID and EMP.ID_DEP.
Present in JDeveloper 11.1.1.2.0, 11.1.1.3.0.

We have implemented our own ViewCriteriaAdater (derived from oracle.jbo.server.OracleSQLBuilderImpl) and some custom properties to handle this. Overwrite the getFormattedRHSCompareFragment to your needs.
Btw. I think this posting should go to the JDev forum.

Best practice - moving home directories

Hello all,
I was looking for insight on best practices for moving home directories.
I was thinking that using the migration tool would be best to move the directories and then using dsrazor to remap all of the home directories for our users.
We are running Netware 6.5 SP8. I have added a 2TB RAID 10 set to one of our servers which is where I am planning on moving all of the user directories.
Thoughts/suggestions are welcome.

I also will need to redo volume space restriction on new user templates and the migrated volumes.
First test went quite smoothly.
Steve D.
When you move data (using Windows explorer ect) across volumes the trustee rights drop off. If moving from NW to NW use Server Consilidation and Migration Tool. If moving from NW to OES Linux use miggui. The SCMT has a few other features like project planning and verification.

Moving home proving to be a nigtmare!

Hi,
We are moving home over the Easter weekend. We have 2 BT accounts, one with phone and internet, and one with just a second line. We run a small business (mostly online) which is very new, hence still on the residential account. We also have a severely disabled person in our family, for whom being without the safety of a phone for an extended period of time really is not an option. There is no mobile reception where we are moving but thats fine if there is a fixed line.
We attempted to place the request to get our lines transferred to the new address 3 weeks or so ago. I was assured I would get a call in a couple days to arrange a convenient time/date as I require a site visit.
I heard nothing for a week and so called them directly. A kind and very helpful lady by the name of Sally informed me that they had come back with a date of the Tuesday after Easter Monday. This is hopeless, and so I asked if anything could be done. I can live without 2 lines for a few days, but I at lest need 1 for the broadband and phone.
She explained that by seperating the order and cancelling one, she could request an earlier date for one appointment, as she could see they were available, but could not put in for one while my current order was live. I was informed I would hear back in a couple of days with a new date.
Nothing.
I called back, and have been unable to reach the lady on the number she gave me, and instead have been met with a wall of very rude and abrupt responses.
he complaints procedure on the BT site is whollly circular too, so you have nowhere really to go. It says to call the number which you do. The number is the customer service number. The person on the line listens to your complaint, and then redirects you right back to the department about which you are complaining, who have already proved not greatly helpful...and so it goes on. The chap did offer to put in a complaint on my behalf, but would not tell me what it would say, and since it was him I was complaining about, I don't imagine it would have done much good!
Anyway, then today, I get a call to tell me that my broadband and phone connection have been 'brought forward' to the 19/04/12. A full 9 days LATER than the original appointment!
This is unbelievable, and frankly unacceptable. The only response you ever get is 'the engineers will not entertain a change'. What am I meant to do with that. I am now looking to cancel the movers, which I paid extra for over a holiday weekend, and the money fr which I will now lose. Maintain the rent on 2 properties for at least a further month. Re-arrange a move at my expense, and start the whole merry go round again.
I mean really is a month not enough notice? I bet it would be if I were a new customer. And how is it that the power company prioritise people with disabilities, and yet BT do not?
If there is anyone there who can actually affect change, please excuse the rant, and HELP!
Cheers

If you are running a business, then you will need to transfer to a business account, which also means you will get a higher priority service.
As you seem to be having problems at the moment. Its possible one of the BT Care team can help sort this out, and also arrange for you to be transferred to a business account.
If you would like to contact one of the UK based BT Care Team who moderate this forum, they should be able to help you.

Moving home

Hi everyone. Perhaps a member can advise me about this.
I contacted BT about a month ago and advised them that I was moving home and would like to take my infinity and youview with me.
They checked the available line speed for me and advised that the best I could hope for was 1 mb. The exchange near my new property will not be upgraded for 18 months.
I told the operator that there was little point installing broadband at that available speed and we agreed that the contract should end at no charge because bt could not provide the service.
The advisor told me that I could keep the youview box.
That was about a month ago. Yesterday I called to say we had exchanged contracts on the new house and we would be moving at the end of the month. The contract has been cancelled from the end of the month. But the new advisor says I must return the youview box?
I have many hours of programs recorded to the box so do not really want to return it. Plus as soon as infinity is available in my area I fully intend to have it installed.
I would be much happier if I could keep this box and not have to pay again in 18 months.
Does anyone know if I can keep this recorder. I am sure when I signed up they said the box was mine. I am only however 6 months into the contract.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

I agree with Zulu as you only six months into a contract then you are indeed liable to return the box as the representative said. However I'll ask a Mod to see what can be done.

FCP & moving Home Folders

Guys, I'm on Lion and am contemplating moving my Home Folder from my Boot Drive to my 2nd Internal HD.
Will this have any adverse and negative effects on any of the Final Cut Studio applications?
I store all my video files and projects on the 2nd internal HD. Nothing is stored on the Boot drive exept for Applications and my iTunes and iPhoto files.
The reason for wanting to do this is my wife and I both have separate accounts. Right now, I do not store any documents (Pictures, Movies etc) on my Boot Drive. All of this is stored on my second internal drive.
Unfortunately, this does not allow my wife and I to separate our documents. She has access to mine and I to hers.
But I want to be able to only access the docs for the person whose account has been logged in to.

If you have independant user accounts (even if they are admin) you should not be able to see the documents, pictures, ect. folders of the other person so I don't understand the issue of access.
Here is a way to deal with it that doesn't involve moving home directories.
Set up a new account for administration. You'll need it for installations and/or to make system changes. Make sure it has administrator privliges. Remember the password!.
Then, change your wife's and your accounts to "standard". This will remove ability to override the "no access" as long as you stay within a standard acct. You will have access to shared public and site folders.
To run backups, install software, etc, log into the machine with the admin account. If nothing else, it makes it harder to screw up the machine as you have to go to a bit extra to make changes.

Timescale for moving home

Hi,
We will be moving home on the 17th august then temporarily living with the inlaws for 4 weeks before getting in to our new home. We would like to transfer our existing telephone and broadband package from our old home to our new home. Does anyone know if this is possible with regards to the 4 week break in service we would have?
Thanks,
Peter

Going by the number of complaints about moving home with BT it will take four weeks or more anyway! If you contact the following number they should be able to give you the information you are looking for.
