YOUR OWN DIAL LABEL

 

 

I can create your own dial label for you.

IMPORTANT These are not available for American Telephones, some Belgian Telephones, and any other telephone where the customer may have difficulty replacing the original label.

From your dialling code and the first few digits of your number, I can often deduce your original exchange.
For example, my own number is 01245 400601. From that, I can see that 01245=Chelmsford, and 400 was Hanningfield. The most appropriate number for an old style label would be HANNINGFIELD 601

The cost is £3.80 for each dial label including post and packing.

Note:- There is a minimum total order charge of £15 for customers paying by cheque or credit/debit card.

Credit/Debit Cards are the preferred method of payment. I no longer accept cheques.

If you wish to place an order, or have an enquiry, please read all below.

Please call me (Gavin Payne) by telephone if you wish to place an order for a telephone, spare parts, or have an enquiry.  I can usually be reached 9.00am to 5.45pm any day, including weekends. Calls in the evening are not appreciated and could make me very grumpy. The number is 01245 400601.

I am in the shop most Saturday and Sunday mornings between 10.00 and 12.00. These are the only times I am in the shop for the sale of spare parts, conversions and repairs.  Conversions and repairs can often be carried out while you wait.

If you have a telephone that you want to know more about, or have it repaired or converted, please have it right next to you when you call. Please also have a selection of small flat bladed screwdrivers to hand.
 I do not give advice for DIY repairs or conversions or valuations of any kind over the telephone or by email. Please bring the telephone to my shop for assessment, but always call me first before bringing it in.
