How report a line fault?

I have no dial tone at home.  Tried to report by phone but the queues are ridiculous; can't raise an issue [at work] via broadband / phone troubleshooter as it errors out; there does not appear to be any email contact.  What to do?

Sorry to hear your phone isn't working.

Our tests have found a external fault which I've raised for you.

@jaread...that doesn't work, as above.  

 

However, Matthew has raised the error - thanks.

That's the wrong link to report a phone fault! It should be https://www.plus.net/my-account/tools/phone-troubleshooter which is linked from https://www.plus.net/help/phone/phone-line-troubleshooting/

Sure seems a very complicated and rather hidden way to report a fault. Not at all customer friendly, but maybe PN no longer wants customers.

Re: How report a line fault?

Just for reference, the phone troubleshooter will only raise a fault to suppliers if it detects an external fault.

 

If it detects no fault or a fault that requires an appointment it'll ask you to call us. Which is where the phone line troubleshooting guide comes into play to rule out an internal fault before you make the call.

This is my personal Community Forum account to help out around these parts while I'm at home. If I'm posting from the 1st March 2020, this means I'm off-duty with no access to internal systems.
