How do I find out a telephone number for a new property?


Recommended Posts

I am trying to sign up to Sky for TV and broadband in my new flat. They need to know the current landline number in this property to confirm my order. The previous tenants have not yet moved out and are not replying to the letting agent to tell them the number.


Sky have told me to wait until I move in, buy a landline phone and dial a number to find out what it is. This is very unhelpful as there is already a 3 week wait for internet installation and I do not intend on buying/using a landline telephone.


Any one got an idea how I get around this quickly?


Thanks

If you know the name of the current or previous tenants, howabout looking them up in the phone book?


If you don't know the name, try looking up the address on the voting register and them looking them up?


Businesses sometimes buy the telephone directory on disc, and they may be able to do a search on the address if you know someone who has this?

I have to say, speechless and admired their bravado - I would not have the guts and knowing my luck, if I accidentally didn’t put something tru the till despite receipt would prob get stopped! Yes, worked with families, homeless and other people who were struggling for food so I do understand why they do it.. sad when you think about it, that in this day and age, all sorts of c people need assistance and help from community in general, food banks, olio etc….
