Why are you using "1470" in front of your ISP's phone number?
Judging by your email address, your ISP is FreeServe. When I had an account with them, it was unnecessary to use "1470".
Freeserve is now Wanadoo - or, judging by their service, Wanadon't! I use the same number for dialup, and queried this with them - they said the 1470 is an essential part of their dialup number, or I'd get charged for the call by BT!
Hmmmm, here's the result of a search for "1470" on BeeTee's Web site:
"A customer with Permanent Number Withhold on their line can release their number on a per call basis by dialling 1470 before dialling the number of the person they would like to call. This means that the person they are calling will be able to see the caller's number on Caller Display or be told it through the free 1471 service."
