Phoneline dead - Broadband works fine

I have logged a question (Question #93817248) through the support portal but as of yet no response.
Our phone line is somehow making our handsets believe that there is a constant incoming call, if we answer any handset we get the most horrendous and loud pulsing noise through the handset. I have tried disconnecting all devices and filters and connecting a single handset to the Master socket but no change. Bizarrely the broadband is completely unaffected and performs normally.
Please advise?
Thanks,
Chris.
