Re: Line Cord Error

This can happen, it's probably a fault upstream of the fibre cabinet. However it's just worth checking plugging the phone into the test socket, that's the one you find if you take the front off the BT Master Socket, and plug a phone in here with no microfilter.

If it's still dead then follow this: https://www.plus.net/help/phone/phone-line-troubleshooting/ If you follow through to the phone troubleshooter I understand that it will automatically raise a phone fault for you. Alternatively ring Plusnet on another phone and report a phone fault.

Re: Line Cord Error

The phone troubleshooter has a habit of returning an error message, even though it has raised a fault report.

If in doubt you can check here - https://www.plus.net/wizard/?p=search (log in required).
