Trying to review my calling features

Like others in this forum, I get this
"  We're sorry...
We have noticed you already have one of our great package deals. Please call one of our helpful advisors on 0800 800 150 who will advise you on how to change your package. "
message, when trying to see what features I have.
Now I used to be able to change them online, so I find it annoying I can no longer do so, and even more annoying that I spend 4 hours on the phone to various BT departments a few days ago, talking to one person after another who had no idea why I was having a problem and no idea how to solve it.  I even got put through to the Broadband tech support at one point.
So, please can someone advise exactly which of the recorded menu options to choose next time I try phoning that number, in order to get through to the RIGHT person who can help me?
But surely to goodness it would be cheaper for BT to go back to allowing this facility online rather than take up hours of their staff time - who will have to slowly list to me all the features I already have, along with their price, while I write them down, as well as any Friends and Family numbers I may have chosen while I write those down, then patiently wait while I mull over and consider what to change them to....  no wonder they keep having to put their prices up!!!

Hi Inge_jones,

  • Page not found when trying to go to Calling Features

    I am logged into https://www36.verizon.com/fiosvoice/members/default.aspx and when I select "Calling Features" on the left side of the page I get the Verizon Fios Digital Voice "Page Not Found" page. 
    I am using Firefox 3.5.9. 
    Is anyone else having this problem?
    Am I using the correct URL for Digital Voice?

    Same with me and my "Do Not Disturb" feature has been turned on without my knowledge, and now I can't turn it off.
    I was able to get through to a rep for FIOS (on the phone with them right now) and they are trying to get a tech to disable that feature.

  • Can't order Calling Features online

    Hello
    When I try to order Calling Features online I get the following message
    Sorry about this...
    We have noticed you already have one of our great package deals. To change your Calling Plan, please call one of our helpful advisors on 0800 800 150. To order Line Rental Saver, please re-enter your details here
    I've emailed BT about this twice and even tried to sort it out through BT chat with no success. Can somebody tell me why I get this error and why I can't order Calling Features online successfully.
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you tried ringing the 0800 800 150 number or calling UK sales on 0800 783 0056?
    The message usually means that you are already still within an existing contract, and need to call them.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

  • Unable to Access Calling Features or Calling Plan ...

    I was wondering if anybody could advise if there is a dedicated support team for issues with BT.com. I am having issues when attempting to access either the Calling Features or Calling Plan Pages from BT.com. I have no problems viewing recent usage or Billing etc. and I am able to make payments. When trying to access the Calling Plan I receive the following error ... "We're sorry. Sorry, we can't continue your request with the account number provided. Please call us on 0800 800 150 to continue." The Calling Features page, returns this ... "Sorry, we can't change your Calling Features at the moment. Sorry, your account number wasn't recognised. Please check and try again." I have tried the 0800 number but nobody seems able to help and I eventually got cut off as I was transferred for the fourth time, so I thought I would see if anybody else has had the same experience and could help me short cut the IVR. Many thanks.

    I also have the same problem. Here is a copy of the email I sent BT after spending a frustrating amount of time talking to their call centre to people who clearly did not have a clue. What is worse is they do not seem to have an escalation process to deal with problems that are not on their script and that they do not understand.
    >>>
    Sir,
    I am writing to complain about the exceedingly poor customer service I received today.
    I have for a long time managed my account TH******* on line. Last year I added account GB******* to the list of accounts I manage online. Ever since this account has been set up I have noted that when I select the 'calling plan' option for this account I get the message "Sorry, we can't change your Calling Plan at the moment. Please call us on 0800 800 150 to continue" and when I select the 'calling features' option I get the message "Sorry, we can't access your account information at the moment. Please try again later".
    Today I tried to do something about this. As directed I called 0800 800 150.
    Issue 1. None of the 4 options (i to place or check on an order, ii calling about a bill, iii moving home, iv a fault or need help with your service) actually apply to what I am calling about but I am forced to listen to them twice because there is not get out option supplied until the recorded message 'you do need to choose one of the options.'
    If you provide a number to call from a website then that number should provide an option that actually applies in the circumstances relating to the reason the number was given. In this case I am calling because the website is not functioning correctly. There was no option for that.
    Issue 2. Before I finally managed to reach a person, I was asked to enter my phone number and my account number. But when I reached an 'advisor' she asked for my account number again.
    If your system does not pass the account number through to the advisors, why make me key it in. If it does, why am I asked for it again?
    When I finally managed to speak to someone after selecting a range of inappropriate options I explained my problem. At first, she just offered to help me change my package. I explained that this was not what I was asking but that I wanted to be able to manage this account online. I was advised that there is currently a fault on the website and that I should try again later.
    On reflection, I decided that this answer was inadequate since I could clearly see both of the options on the account TH******* and I had never been able to see these options on the new account since it had been set up despite having tried several times.
    Issue 3. The answer given does not seem to address my problem.
    So I called again.
    Repeat issues 1 & 2.
    This time I reached Kamal in billing and services. Similarly he just offered to help me change my package. I explained that this was not what I was asking but that I wanted to be able to manage this account online. I explained that I could do this for account TH... but not account GB... After some time he came back with the answer that it was not possible to do with GB accounts but was with TH accounts. I expressed incredulity and asked to register a complaint about the fact that I could manage one account comprehensively but not the other. I then noticed for the first time that on the 'Accounts' page on the website, there was no telephone number showing under the account number GB****** whereas there was under the account number TH******8. So I suggested that perhaps the account had not been set up correctly.
    After some considerable time while he looked into this, put me on hold several times, and at one point suggested that he might have to reset my password, he finally came back to me with the response that there was a technical problem with the website and that I should try again in 24 hours.
    Issue 4. It is unacceptable that I was kept hanging around for so long while he attempted to diagnose the problem.
    Issue 5. Clearly, the advice he gave me earlier in the call that "it was not possible to do with GB accounts" was rubbish.
    In all, this was a totally unsatisfactory experience. I am hoping someone can explain why your system is so convoluted and, in the end, inadequate. Most of all I would like to be assured that my account will now be able to be managed online - if not, why not.
    I will try the system again in 24 hours as advised by Kamal. Hopefully I will find that it works.
    >>>
    Unhappily, it didn't work as I expected it wouldn't. One week later I still had not received a reply to my email so I emailed them again.
    Finally, 4 days after that I received the following reply
    >>>
    The incident A/c no : GB****** - Unable to access calling plan online that you reported has now been resolved.
    Please note that you have not attached telephone number while adding this account to online profile.
    Please remove account and add again with telephone number after that you will able to access calling plan within 24hrs.
     Thank you for your time in this matter and we apologize for any inconvenience that may have been caused.
     <<<
    Note that they are telling me the problem is my fault. What do they mean 'you have not attached the telephone number' - I can clearly see the billing information for this number so it clearly is 'attached' to the account.
    After hunting for ages on their website to find an option to delete the account as suggested I eventually found it, pressed the delete button and ....
    You cannot remove this account from your profile. For further assistance, please call 0800 800 152.
    We're sorry, but it's not possible to remove this account from your profile at this time.
    OMG!
    So I guess I am going to have to spend yet more time on the phone to them. I'll let you know how I get on.

  • New calling feature in OS X 10.10 needs a keypad

    The new calling feature works great in OS X 10.10, until you come across an automated phone system... No keypad.
    Hopefully that will get updated. I can't imagine Apple didn't think about this.

    Neat, thanks. Should still be a setting elsewhere but solves my problem - thank you

    is your mute switch turned on (above the volume) ?  remove case and screen protecter.
    is volume turned up?

  • 8961 call features don't work on CME

    Dear all,
    I installed the 8961 using sip on CME 8.8, and I have configured the feature-buttons on the template which includes call pickup, call park and transfers, and these feature buttons can display on the screen. But when I use these buttons, I get the busy tone, that means these feature buttons don't work.
    Are there any other setting steps for using these call features?
    Thanks
    Kirin

    let me send you a few more links which will give you step by step configuration of cal park, call transfer.....
    so that you can clarify the configuration once,
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/admin/configuration/guide/cmepark.html
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucme/admin/configuration/guide/cmetrans.html
    and below is some useful information regarding soft key configuration on cme
    Cisco Unified CME uses the existing softkey command under voice  register template configuration mode to control the controllable  feature soft keys on phones. Cisco Unified CME generates a featurePolicy.xml file for each voice register template configured. The list of controllable soft key configurations are specified in the featurePolicy.xml file.  Phones need to reboot or reset to download the Feature Policy template  file. For Cisco IP phones that do not have a Feature Policy template  assigned to them, you can use the default Feature Policy template file  (featurePolicyDefault.xml file).

  • Remove calling features - Answer 1571 and Privacy ...

    I've just ordered a new connection, and decided to opt into the "free" calling features Answer 1571 and Privacy at Home. After completing the order I was notified by email that these features are only free under certain conditions, otherwise there's an additional monthly charge. This was probably mentioned somewhere while I was ordering it, but I didn't see it so I'm guessing it was buried in small print.
    I'd like to opt out of these calling features to avoid having to pay any additional charges, but I can't find any information on how to change which calling features I'm subscribed to. Please can you let me know how to turn off Answer 1571 and Privacy at Home.
    I'd also like to make a suggestion: You should make it clear to your customers that there are hidden charges associated with these "free" services before they place their orders.
    -Mike

  • Tour 9630 says phone in use when trying to make a call.

    We have 10 new BB Tour 9630. We have already returned one due to garbled voice. Another has developed a new condition that such that when trying to make a call it says "phone in use" when there is no call in progress. Only solution so far is to take battery out and reboot. It has happened 2 times in the past week. Taking the battery out and rebooting is not an acceptable solution. Anyone have any better ideas?
    Thanks
