What do I get with Presentation Number?

Why are individual DDI numbers still being presented on outbound calls?

Your equipment has been configured for UPV (User Provided and Verified) CLI (Caller Line Identification). This must be turned off to allow the Presentation Number to be sent. This is always an equipment issue as BT's network has no way of knowing which extension is being used to generate an outbound call.

Can I choose to have the Presentation Number service applied to one number only in my DDI range?

No, the service has to apply to the main Directory Number and all the DDI ranges and single numbers simultaneously.

Can I choose to have the Presentation Number service applied to a single Multiple Subscriber (MSN) number?

No, the service has to apply to the main Directory Number and all the MSN numbers simultaneously.

I have ISDN30/30e with 2 DDI ranges. Can I have one Presentation Number on one range and another Presentation Number on the other range?

No, the service has to apply to the main Directory Number and all the DDI ranges and single numbers simultaneously.

I have a residential line which I use for business - can I have the Presentation Number service?

No, the Presentation Number service is available to users of business lines only.

I have just had Featureline added to my line - why does the Presentation Number service no longer work?

The Presentation Number service is not compatible with Featureline.

Can a non-BT number from another licensed operator be my Presentation Number?

Yes, however, we will require the LOPID (Licensed Operator Profile Identifier) of the operator from whom the number has been purchased.

Can a number from a line that has Incoming Call Barring be my Presentation Number?

No, Ofcom regulations state that a line connection has to be made as a result of dialling a Presentation Number.

Will the Presentation Number service affect my ability to use Carrier Pre-Select (CPS) or Least Cost Routing (LCR)?

No, use of CPS and LCR should be unaffected.

Can I find information on the Presentation Number service online?

Yes, if you are an ISDN2e customer you can view the information page.
