PSTN Fixed lines and calls
PSTN or Fixed line services cover the following:
- PSTN connectivity for Analogue and Digital (ISDN2 and ISDN 30 lines)
- Carrier Pre Selection (CPS) for low cost PSTN calls
- Non Geographic numbers giving businesses a national presence whether this be for convenient access to sales lines using a free phone number, or for attracting call revenue share for lines used for support and service
You can transfer your existing line rental and calls to Europacom in a seamless process that does not involve specialist equipment such as routers or any disruption to a customer's service:
- Lines are transferred under a process known as Wholesale Line Rental (WLR). Only BT lines can be transferred which excludes Virgin Media (formerly ntl:telewest) and other cable company lines and those of other telephone companies such as KCom.
- Broadband services can be attached to a WLR line and it is generally policy that customers with Europacom Broadband transfer the underlying Analogue line so that the complete service can be fully managed and supported.
- Calls made from Europacom lines are seamlessly re-routed to an alternative carrier to BT. This is done through a process called Carrier Pre Selection (CPS) within the intelligence of the BT host network and therefore negates any reliance on routers or indirect access call prefixes to re-route the calls.
