Landline down

My phone has now been down for a day now.   When I use the phone troubleshooter link and get to the "check my line" stage, it knocks out broadband and I lose communication with the troubleshooter.    When broadband comes back, I get the message "Oops something seems to have gone wrong, please call us on ...."

So please could you raise a ticket on my behalf.

 

thanks

Andrew

Fix

Hi @Litenites, I'm sorry for the issues with your phone service. It looks like the line test failed and the fault was raised to our suppliers yesterday.

 

I've moved your fault ticket to the relevant place to monitor this for you. Please just let us know if you have any further queries in the meantime.

Thanks lauren, much appreciated, I have an elderly mother who has had strokes and is still at risk of more, she is panicking about not being able to phone me, she is 86 and not mobile savvy.

Re: Landline down

Hi Andrew.

It actually looks like the fault report is still open and in hand with Openreach. The estimated response/resolution time hasn't changed from 31/07/19 23:59:59. Let us know if you're still having issues after this and we'll be happy to chase things up.

Re: Landline down

Hi Andrew, it looks like this should be fixed for (hopefully) good now.

Is everything working fine your side?

Re: Landline down

Having said that, I've retested your line again and we're detecting a possible line card fault at the exchange on Openreach equipment so I've got this reported back through to our suppliers and we'll update you when we know more.
