Re: My caller display has stopped working, any advice please?

I think you've frightened them off with your prerequisites. Wink
The agent who did it for me had several goes before it worked, and as I said it's flaky and no one seems to fully understand the vagaries of why it sometime goes wrong. Asking them to predict and give guarantees is a step to far IMHO  Roll_eyes

I didn't mean to frighten them off lol.
As I genuinely did not understand what was being suggested by clearing it from my account and adding it again (compared with the previously tried 'resets') , I just wanted to make sure that my contract and conditions don't change if I accept what Ben suggested.
If that has 'frightened them off, then it's disappointing to say the least. Despite it being at least 10 weeks now, I have remained polite and grateful for any help. The only sentiment I have expressed is disappointment and frustration, and the lack of reply isn't very encouraging Sad

Re: My caller display has stopped working, any advice please?

Sorry, missed this thread 😕
What Ben has suggested wouldn't make any difference as whether or not caller display shows on our systems does not affect how it works, it's purely there for reference and account management.
I've asked Matthew to look at this again and follow up the manual faults we've raised.
I'm really sorry this is still ongoing 😕

Re: My caller display has stopped working, any advice please?

Thank you for that Chris,
but I would also like to understand the option that Ben was offering.
I believe some kind of 'reset' has been tried at least twice, but in Ben's recent post, he suggested removing it completely from my account and then having it added as a new service. If this is different to the previous resets and might work, then of course I would agree. I just needed to understand that it wouldn't affect the rest of my PN service.
Thanks again,
kmw

Ben's suggestion was to remove it from our system and re-add. As we'd already done this on a wholesale level (twice IIRC) I don't think it'll make any difference.

Re: My caller display has stopped working, any advice please?

Hi again PlusNet,
Can you please tell me what is happening with my loss of caller ID display?
My support question appears to have been closed, and yet the issue has not been resolved.
Please, please, can someone clarify what is going on? If you cannot fix it, why won't you just tell me so?
I have been polite and patient for the past 2 1/2 months, now it just seems to have been closed with no explanation. Really disappointed in this.  Sad

Just to confirm a engineer is checking the exchange in the next 24 hours.

Thank you Matthew.
For info, I could see that you just did a reset of my line, that seems to happen each time I post here for an update, but I can promise you that does NOT fix it. I really hope the engineer can find something.

We shouldn't be doing that at all.
I've took this on personally so there's no more confusion.

Thanks, that is good to know.
Personally, I think that would be a good idea - allocate to a particular staff member if a problem is not resolved in a set time.
Anyway, ever hopeful, let's see what the next 24hrs brings

Any news from the exchange Matthew?
It was being checked within 24hrs, that was 4 days ago, and still no caller ID at this end.
Thanks
