Picky sod :augie
Do you really need to send a "Fax" in the first place? Why not email?

 

[clivvy]

are you using an adsl filter? and do you have a filter on every main BT socket?

the adsl filter has gone 100mph up garden after i bought three after bt kept telling me it was faulty and was giving me dial up speeds!

 

[clivvy]

without the adsl filter, picking up the phone will screw up the broadband, so will faxing etc. You need a decent filter on every BT socket in the house.

another point, have they asked you to take the main socket apart yet, and do stuff with it? if they havent, they should, the problem could be the main socket...

what bhave they asked you to fax? email constitutes a legal document these days so it should be fine, unloess thewy refuse to accept it.

have you not got a scanner?

they wont use email point blank refusal,fax or snail mail very frustrating i got two of those scan,fax,copy print things but it messed all tinternet up and i got rollockings all round and sent to bed with no tea lol.
ive even got two different phone numbers off bt ones sommat to do with tinternet others normal but even unplugging hub and pluggin fax into socket at wall did no good!

 

[clivvy]

again, filter. filter has a phone/fax socket on it, plus a socket for your router. job done.

one will be your HubPhone which is an internet IP phone with free calls after 6pm to other IP phones.

If you haqve a scanner you just scan the document as a jpeg and attach it to your email??

Local office centre or school or business or neighbour or... the list of options is endless ,then check filters etc. while waiting their response. Should add,whichever you use,office centre,school etc., check if they will allow the insurance company to reply to their fax machine. Been there,done that etc.

Go to the post office or a paper shop some time you can fax from there, have you a friend in a business could they fax for you , some library fax.

I have faxed with my all in one printer, scanner, fax Lexmark X5495
You have to spend some time setting up the "Printer" from the computer, then I unplug the main phone from the ADSL socket and plug it in there... Works for me.

Receiving will be a different matter though, you will need to know a few minutes before hand that it is coming in, ours is further complicated by having an answer phone on the incoming line.

In the last 5 years I have sent 3 faxes, wow..... I prefer to scan and email.

Rustic.

rbs/direct line uslesss!

I'll go with that, they wouldn't let me fit a second battery under the bonnet, as it was an unapproved modification.

Good job I checked before fitting it........:doh
