They took apart her phone and removed all the keys from the keypad leaving the "9" key in case she needed to make an emergency call. She could still receive calls, just not make them.
It worked a treat .....

Or use your mobile to generate the DTFM and play it through the microphone on the landline ?

Quote from: Fireant If i had me own way id get rid of the home phone altogether because for what i need it for but you got to have it for broadband .
So if you have no need for a phone line for out going calls, why not accept Ben's offer to have all outgoing calls (except emergency numbers) blocked as per this post...?
Quote from: Ben The only option available within our CRM is to block all calls, except 999 & freephone. In addition it is possible to place manual orders to bar:
All calls
Premium calls
Premium & international calls

Use to use inbuilt DTFM diallers on PDA's a lot a few years back. Use to work really well.

If it happened with BT and then again with plusnet, then it would suggest someone is somehow tapping into your line, or using it without your knowledge.
You're going to have the same issue with any phone provider you use.
One solution (albeit fairly extreme) is to have all outgoing calls barred on your line, disconnect the phone, and then use a VoIP service for all your incoming and outgoing calls
