BT tell me this is not possibe ( I know its not in their intrest as they lose revenue)
I have just moved in with new partner and her 16 year old dughter has been known to run up £100 calls to mobiles
As i now pay the bill i need to restrict this
I can block all out going calls but not just calls to mobiles
Has anyone else found a way around this or shall i stick with plan B and just cut of her fingers so she cant dial the numbers!!!!

Not really as that would block all calls - he only wants to block calls to mobiles.
Although, if she had to ask for the key every time she made a call then someone could then monitor the number she was ringing?

16th July 2012, 03:36 PM #9 Speak to Retention (the people they put you through to when you say you want to leave). They'll bend over backwards to keep you with them. Cite blocking calls to mobile numbers as your condition with staying with them. Oh, and a 10% discount whilst you're at it, because you got lied to in the first place.
