If you have an ISDN telephone
line, there is a process for having your line converted to ADSL. When you
start the signup process for Topletter broadband you will need to enter the
telephone number that you would like ADSL installed on. In the case of ISDN
conversions, this will also determine which of your telephone numbers is retained.
Please note the ISDN product you have will determine which of your ISDN numbers,
you can choose from, see the table below for more information.
Product
Number
that can be retained
ISDN
The
main ISDN directory number, or optionally where provided the
second channel's directory number.
ISDN2e
The
main ISDN directory number only.
Business
/ Home Highway
The
main ISDN directory number, or either one of the PSTN1 / PSTN2
channel directory numbers.
When ordering Topletter broadband,
please ensure that you enter the correct telephone number in the 'Telephone
Number' field on the 'about you' page. If you order your broadband service
on a telephone number that cannot be retained, your order will be cancelled
by BT. Likewise, we cannot accept responsibility if your ADSL service is delivered
to the wrong ISDN number, if this is the number that was entered during the
signup process.
An ISDN to ADSL conversion
requires a BT engineer to visit the property, therefore you will need to ensure
that access to the property is available during the appointment time. We will
advise you of the appointment time in your welcome letter. If the appointment
you receive is unsuitable, you must notify us at least 48 hours before the
appointment time, else an administration fee may apply. If the BT engineer
arrives at the site and is unable to start the conversion you may be charged
an abortive visit fee of £58.75 inc VAT. On average, the appointment date
will be 5-7 working days from the date of your order.
If the ISDN to ADSL conversion
is unsuccessful, the BT engineer will return your telephone line back to its original state and your
ADSL order will be cancelled. You will not be charged for the attempted installation.
