When your phoneline isnt working correctly AS a phoneline, it usually knocks out the broadband too.
This is why when you have issues with the line itself, you should NEVER mention broadband when you're raising the fault, as it can lead to a lengthy "whats wrong with the broadband" process, when in actual fact the issue is with the line.
Hope That Helps
Regards

If BT haven't closed the phone fault off properly we can only go so far with broadband troubleshooting and then it gives us the message that there is an open phone fault and for the customer to call their supplier. Can you call them and ask them to close the phone fault off?

what do you mean by "close the phone fault off"?
BT report this as "ongoing" on their website against the ticket I raised and then say:
We have run a line test and we cannot find a problem with your line. The problem may be with your own equipment so we need you to carry out some tests. To get help with that click on the 'Help Section' on top right. If you have already checked your equipment and still have a problem then please call 0800 800 151.

If the line is perfectly clear and you have no issues with the phone at all, and the problem is with JUST your broadband, you should have raised it with Plusnet, not BT.
You'll have to get that fault closed before PN can open a Broadband Fault. (Phone + Broadband faults cannot be done at the same time, as if theres a phone fault there is almost *always* a broadband fault)

PS, this is raised with PlusNet support already, the last message from them was:
I can see that there still seems to be an open phone on your connection, please get back in touch once this is cleared

Open Phone fault being its a fault/ticket thats still open as opposed to closed, not a fault with a phone per-se - like an open circuit which is what I thought it meant and, I have to say, implied by the support ticket..

Quote I can see that there still seems to be an open phone on your connection
I think it was a slip of the agents fingers, who meant...
"I can see that there still seems to be an open phone fault on your connection"
This makes a little more sense, and points you at the conclusion we came to prior
As before, as soon as BT have closed off that ticket, BT will be able to open an issue with BT

Ticket updated with my latest speedtest results.
Can someone close this thread, its no longer about an open phone fault, its about slow download speeds.
