Hi Well your advice and a timely bit of telco magic (they called me right after I posted, don't know what they did, nor do I think they do either ;-) the TE problems have been solved.
However I am now getting this... 00:03:55: %ISDN-4-INVALID_CALLEDNUMBER: Interface BR0, Ignoring call, LDN and Ca lled Party Number mismatch Number mismatch... humm... any ideas? I have tried playing with the dialer map number and the LDN number to no avail. BTW the config now matches to the advice from Paul.
