Re: Call Protect cannot be connected

Everything is deactivated now, without me having got around to raising a ticket (I don't know whether @Tibzor's intervention had anything to do with that or not). For the moment, I shall wait and see what happens rather than attempt to do anything more myself.

Hi @olliebean 

Yes it was the intervention of @Tibzor  and if you wait 24hrs go to your  account, activate Call Protect and see what happens.  If you still have a problem report it back here.

Except for a few specialised issues, the facility for customers to raise tickets was withdrawn several years ago.

@Tibzor 's intervention is undoubtedly the reason for signs of progress, and s/he will have raised a ticket, which you can view by logging in here: https://www.plus.net/wizard/?p=search

Hope it goes well.  🤞

Re: Call Protect cannot be connected

Hello, it was actually I that deactivated the call features on your account so they could be re-added. Sorry I should’ve posted earlier on. Smiley

After @Tibzor’s intervention of adding them directly into the supplier systems has completed, we’ll fix your account up next week so you’ll be able to manage the call features yourself.

Thanks for your help, @Tibzor and @Gandalf - both Call Protect and Voicemail are now active and working on my phone line (although not yet showing as such on the website, as @Tibzor mentioned they wouldn't be).

Re: Call Protect cannot be connected

@Gandalf , I have had Plusnet call protect for some time and recently (like a week or so ago) I needed to blacklist one number which was becoming a nuisance, but at the time of activating call protect I was not given the number 1572 to dial to block (or redirect) the number and therefore I had to make a call to plusnet customer service which took a long time to get through - to be told to dial 1572 and then proceed from there.

My concern is if I need to check which numbers I have "redirected" using 1572,  how do I go about it.  Is there a procedure somewhere on plusnet website to follow?  Please do enlighten us the (poor and struggling) customers.

Thank you and I hope to hear soon from you.

Many regards,

Chandu.

Re: Call Protect cannot be connected

Hi @chandu 

There is a call protect table in other replies giving details of what to do. If you cannot find it let me know and I will re-post it once again.

@mort7890 ,

Sorry. unable to find the table you have mentioned.  It is definitely not on this thread.  So, where is it?  Please help.  Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Chandu.

Re: Call Protect cannot be connected

Is it this one?

https://community.plus.net/aptgm87544/attachments/aptgm87544/Phone/28916/1/PLUSNET%20CALL%20PROTECT%...

That's what came up on a search for "Plusnet call protect table". The comment at the bottom, though, doesn't fill one with confidence:

"This table has been compiled using the instructions and by listening to the voice instructions on 1572. There may be errors and are certainly omissions."
