Anyone have a number for NTV??

Not sure they do phone calls Vaughan, but they do an online live chat if thats any good to you.

If you are trying to pay by debit/credit card then they tell me that they have a "Glitch" in their banking system!!! I have been told this "Glitch" has effected both Mastercard and Visa for the past two months and that they are working on it - this is the same "Glitch" that they had two years ago! They offer the option of you going to pay for your NTV at "Your local Multimax Office", wonderful service that is without any concern about how far away your "Local" office is! I will give them another month to sort out their "Glitch" then will seek service elsewhere I think.

I have paid them using a debit card twice recently !!

Oh no! - not those new fangled squawk boxes! - He won't want anything to do with those

Bert: It is not all the cards that are a problem. Mine were two from Nationwide and one from Lloyds and all three were rejected.

IPMAN: When you pay by phone in what currency are you paying? and just for Keith - where do you insert your card in the phone?????

Any suitable orifice

Lucky me, good job I still have a dial phone with the little drawer under it - I will give that a try.

Good luck with that!

I used my UK visa - so assume it was converted to Sterling from TL

I paid online with a Lloyds debit card, the price was displayed in euros but came out of the bank in Sterling, all very easy and no problems.

This is where a REVOLUT account comes in handy!

Fortunately you don't need a phone card, 4 pennies will suffice and remember, if you don't get through, press button B.

Yup Kanonier, I used to get my weekly pocket money by wandering around the streets of our small town in Norfolk, going into phone boxes and pressing button B. I knew where every box was. Then some little 6 year old mafia tried to muscle into my territory. He didn't get far!!!

Don't go telling everyone!
