Good evening

Re: Home phone no dial tone

Hi Andrea.

I'm sorry to see you're experiencing problems with your phone service.

Our tests are showing a potential fault on BT equipment at the exchange, so I've reported this through to our suppliers for further investigation and we've been advised an estimated response time of by 29/07/19 17:00:00 for an engineer to go out and investigate further. Let us know how it goes over the next few days.

From 31st October 2022, I no longer have a regular presence here as I’ve moved on to a new role.

Hi Andrea

No problem, I've just checked the fault report before logging out for the night and it's already assigned to an engineer. This likely means it's in an engineer's work-stack for tomorrow as opposed to an engineer out on the job tonight, although that's always possible and not uncommon. Fingers crossed it's fixed soon.

Having the same issue. Cordless phones saying line cord error. Have unplugged etc but no joy! Openreach have been in my area so I wonder if it's connected? Please help.

Re: Home phone no dial tone

Hi @sid28,

 

Thanks for getting in touch.

 

Apologies for the issue you're experiencing, I've check the line and it does appear there's a fault somewhere.

 

I've raised this with our suppliers Openreach. It doesn't appear an appointment to visit your property is required at this stage as the issue is somewhere else, however you can follow the fault progress or add to the ticket here.

 

If you need any further assistance, please let us know.

 

Thanks - LF
