Tiscali do give out LLU mac codes VERY reluctantly {may need to demand
to speak to a manager} and some ISP's can process orders with them
[although it is a manual process which is why some ISP's will not accept
them].
The ISP I work for has migrated over quite a lot of Tiscali customers
recently without issues.
