You asked

It is in my understanding that there have been some changes to the ibus announcements. In addition, the CD that was sent to me last March seemed to be outdated e.g. ('four nine o'rather than 'four ninety ' as it is today and certain segments such as 'to' were missing. I would therefore like to request a new CD containing the latest announcements you can get from the ibus recording team
