Is there anyway that someone could 'tap' into your line to make these calls offsite, ie not at your house? Is your broadband protected?
Someone could have been outside dialling on their computer using your phone line perhaps?
Did you check your computer history to see if there are any dodgy websites accessed .
If someone in your house was using computer and clicked on one of these 'dodgy ' websites , maybe your there was an auto dialler in the background .
Something similar to this happened us 6 months ago , but we got it in time and disconnected immediately .
We have a cordless phone, its an eircom 7000, so would be interested in further info on this angle - how might this effect the line?
Someone sitting outside your house with an eircom 7000 handset running up your bill.
Just final observations that i probably should have mentioned in case its relevant, my sky+ box is continuously connected to the phone line....would this cause problems?
I would be very surprised. But just to be sure click :
SERVICES, 4, 0, 1, SELECT
Then go to Telephone Settings , Select
Make sure the dialing prefix is empty.
jh, i went to service then 4 but only have 1 - 8 options in this screen, no 0. can you advise please
Cheers
It's hidden. Just press the numbers on the remote, nothing will happen on the screen for some of them.
Help! What happens if there are numbers in the prefix box?
