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?

    • Don't you just hate that at theaters and cinemas  I know food and drink sales help keep ticket prices down but nothing is more off putting then a badly timed crunch of crisps after frantic rattling of plastic.
    • Went to see the Tony-Winning Stereophonic last night, the play that is apparently not about the recording of Rumours but is set in a recording studio in Sausalito in the late 70's and features a band with three Brits (two men, one woman) and two Americans (one man, one woman). It was good but I wasn't blown away, wasn't helped by the number of people chomping on noisy snacks throughout the performance !
    • We tried norbert's on Friday night. Of course there are cheaper places to eat chicken in SE22 and we overdid it on the sides because we wanted to try out their range of options. But it's very good quality chicken and two people could easily be satisfied sharing half a chicken and chips which would be £24 – £12 each.
