Hello,
I’m having some issues with my phoneline.
We have a dial tone down the phone. We can't dial out but can receive incoming calls.
The internet is patchy and drops out for a few seconds-few minutes most days, sometimes multiple times.
This is the current (internet working) dsl summary attatched.
I'm not sure what steps to take next, any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Happy_Hippo
Fixed! Go to the fix.

Follow this wizard https://www.plus.net/help/phone/phone-line-troubleshooting/
In the end it will do a linetest which may pick up the problem, and report any issue directly to Openreach to fix.

Yeah the tester is a bit flaky. It sometimes works and then says 'Oops something went wrong'. If you then search in your support tickets you will see that is has actually logged a call with Openreach.
Does it find a fault ? I assume you have also tested in the master socket with a known good phone, just to be doubly sure it's not your equipment playing up ?

Hi @Happy_Hippo
Welcome to our online Community Forum, and I'm sorry for the issues that you've reported above, though I'm glad to know that they're sorted now. Unfortunately, there's no way that I'd be able to see what caused this, introspectively, however I can confirm that tests on the line this afternoon have not picked up on any issues with the line.
Let us know if this happens again straight away, and we'll be more than happy to investigate.
