Geoff 4 Report post Posted April 2, 2012 I live in Gobowen. BT has put my Telephone Book entry in the Wrexham editition. Odd this as I think Wrexham is in Wales and Gobowen is in England! I spoke to someone at BT about this and he said that as all numbers are obtainable from the internet it does not matter what book you are in; really? So, someone wants my number and knows I live in Gobowen and checks to find I am not in the Oswestry book therefore cannot make contact as he/she does not have an internet connection. As directory enquiries uses BT 'phone books how is one to find a number. I am sure I am not alone in this and perhaps a concerted approach to BT; maybe through our local council, could alter future entries Does Weston Rynn and others suffer the same problem I wonder?

neo 6 Report post Posted April 2, 2012 That's Weston Rhyn, Geoff ;) We are on the Chirk exchange, so its entirely likely that we would be "Wrexham" I will see if I have had a recent phone book. To be honest, the phone book/yellow pages as hard copies are becoming so outdated we should have the option to opt out of receiving one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simple Simon 36 Report post Posted April 2, 2012 This has been happening for years. It would be interesting to know how close a house has to be to Oswestry before you get a Shrews/Osw phone book. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
