Default Help Please... What area am I in?

Hi,

This is my first post, so please do forgive me if I am asking something that has already been answered.

I have used the search option but didn't have any luck.

What I would like to know/need help with is finding out what area I am in? Is there a document which details this? Could I enter a postcode somewhere and would it let me know if I am in a TW or C&W or Pure area?

I've used the chatterbox toolbar to download a document called carleboys codes.rtf - but this does not have my area in - but two area's which are very close to me.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Easiest way for me is to replace www. with www_ and remove the formatting

The DSL Zone website tells me I'm on the Bromley (ex C&W) platform.

Thats perfect.

But Stevo25, you've said according to my IP that I am on NTL - could the 2 be different? i.e the Broadband and TV?

I'm guessing not.

The only reason I am asking is to figure out which key to use for my area for a funcard. (Hope I've got the terminology correct).

Thanks again.
