The 14258 service is not working, is anyone else having the same issue and is there a way of fixing the problem.

Thank you @Gliwmaeden2, I persevered with the new process and I agree it is working fine. I had previously queried the topic in a chat with customer services a week ago and they promised to look into it and get back to me. My only comment is why change what from the customers viewpoint was an easy to use procedure and now introduce additional steps.

Yes, it's bewildering, @Gladys gloucester.
The old version of Last Caller Barring was much more straightforward to use.
I don't think that the instructions for it have been updated on the forum search engine either....
I'll try to alert staff about it.

I noticed yesterday when I tried to bar a scam number it was not the old option. Don’t like the new call bar service a ladies voice with a multitude of instructions. I tried looking on the TalkTalk website to see if there was any mention of the change but none. I was told I had too many numbers listed to add another and had to go through the rigmarole of deleting some of the old numbers to add the new one. I did eventually manage to use it. Also my ring tone has changed very difficult to tell that the land line is ringing now. What have you done TalkTalk.

I have just checked it and it's working fine for me, though it's now the woman's voice, slightly different wording (call "rejection" rather than "barring".....why did they do that as it makes us think we have the wrong service?) and a different batch of procedures.
But it is all still effectively there, @JN321.
