Tiscali Access Codes

Dave

Could somebody tell me what the access code for Tiscali is from a BT
line please? I have a dialler box for a phone I have downstairs but
would like to be able to access the Tiscali network from a phone
upstairs as well.

Many thanks.

Many thanks, but it didn't work. There isn't a delimiter is there?

"delimiter" ?

If 1615 dosn't work you could try one of these others:

1401
14020
1436
1828
1845
1848

I take it your dialloing with the full STD code after the 1xx prefix?

If none of these work it could be that the dialler is using a toll
free number (0800 ect).

Hi,


Try plugging a normal phone in parallel to the dialler and then another
phone into the dialler as well.

Prepare to dial a number on the phone connected to the dialler...

Commence dialling number on phone connected to dialler and either (depending
of operation of dialler - use try and error):

a) upon finishing dialling of number on phone connected to dialler pick up
the other phone connected in parallel to the phone socket with the dialler
and listen carefully for the tones (if four before your dialled number [may
help to dial a short or even single digit number in the first place to help
you with the identification of the code dialled by the dialler rather than
the target number it then onward dials that you inputted yourself in the
first place] you are using a normal shortcode (a bit of practise and
listening will allow you to learn what it is - listen with your "musical"
ear, etc. and listen to produce the same tone sequence on one of your normal
phones whilst listening to it and the tones it makes whilst pressing the
numbers you believe you heard the dialling making)...

b) either before dialling with the phone attached to the dialler lift the
receiver on the phone connected in parallel with the dialler and listen
carefully and then immediately commence dialling of the test / target number
on the dialler connected phone and listen for code patterns as above // or
lift dialler connected phone and then very quickly thereafter lift and
listen to receiver of parallel connected phone whilst performing above or
commence dialling of number on dialler connected phone and very shortly
thereafter (after commencing dialling of test / target number) lift and
listen to receiver of parallel connected phone and perform above tone test
methodology (their is computer software, etc. that can actually convert the
DTMF tones into numbers for you if you really struggle but that is another
subject)

Diagram of Test / Diagnostic Configuration:


WALL |-->Normal Phone A
SOCKET:-->SPLITTER-->|
|-->Dialler-->Normal Phone B


Hope that helps / works (should do with one of the above configurations or
simple variations of thereat).


Best wishes,

P.s. General query, thought or point? Is it not potentially a bit a bad idea
to "randomlyish" try short access codes as you could trigger service with a
different provider? Any confirmations, thoughts, etc. on this point
additionally to the above by any poster appreciated . Thanks .
