Hi Phil

Many thanks for the response! Yes, I am missing a > in the second part, and
the area code is also missing. How do I cater for fewer digits? I guess
there is a trick to it!

Anyway, I have been delving, and have the following dial plan crafted which
I think will do what I need (about to upload it and see)... is there a more
graceful way of writing it (and also, how do I allow for shorter numbers in
this one?)

(*xx|
I think this is to do with handset/provider commands

<:14101933>[2-8]xxxxxS0|
If I dial a local number (starts with a 2 through to 8) prefix it with 141
and the area code (01933)

00[1-9]x.|
If I dial international, dial the number without any changes

090x!|
Bar those pesky 090x chatlines (no more chat n flirt for me!)

<01:14101>xxxxxxxxxS0|
<02:14102>xxxxxxxxxS0|
<05:14105>xxxxxxxxxS0|
<07:14107>xxxxxxxxxS0|
<08:14108>xxxxxxxxxS0|
Dialing national, freephone, lo-call and mobiles will prefix the number with
141

Then we move onto the gateway side...
<#1:00441933>[2-8]xxxxx<:@gw1>|
Dialling #1 then a local number (starts 2-9), prefix 0044, the area code
(01933) and sends it to gateway1

<#101:00441>xxxxxx<:@gw1>|
<#102:00442>xxxxxx<:@gw1>|
<#105:00445>xxxxxx<:@gw1>|
<#107:00447>xxxxxx<:@gw1>|
Dialling #1 before national, freephone, lo-call and mobiles prefixes 0044
and sends it to gateway1

<#1:>00[1-9]x.<:@gw1>)
Dialing #1 and an international number sends it to gateway1


....any way to improve it?

Many thanks
