Re: Timed phone call automation (old thread)

[ian.bird@xxxxxxx]

I had a look as I one of those interested at the time but no sadly TTS.
There are no details on the site and my requirement is slightly different
as I want to cut off all calls except outbound Internet and international
ones. I have not given this any thought since the original thread as it is
not a huge problem at the moment. As the kids grow up I guess this may
change.

Does anyone have any ideas of where we can find more information?

Thanks

Ian

Graham, I think, was after a method to "alarm" when a normal
voice call
approached 1 hour's duration so the call could be redialled thus saving BT
charges.

A solution was proposed which involved a modem, TTS announcements etc.

However, CPC sell a piece of kit which monitors "internet" phone
calls and
can be programmed to drop the line / prohibit a connection once the
"allotted time" has been used up. An warning is given 5mins
before the
time expires, has password protection etc.

I was trying to find this at the time but no joy. Opened the CPC catalogue
this morning and happened to go straight to it.

10 am)
