I took it back tho the shop I got it from (3) and told them the problem.

I suggested the guy at the shop rang it so he could hear for himself the 
message. As soon as he saw the phone number, he said the number was the 
problem. He said it is a brand new prefix (0740) which was new enough to not be 
fully on the system and it would be a resolved issue once I have my pac code 
and get my old number back.

Does this sound right??

Thanks,

Andrew
