Possible land line problems

Hi hope someone can do a line check for me to make sure my land line is working or not as I do not have a fixed cable phone to check, I am fully aware that my broadband is not performing as it should (low Speed) but as of a few minutes ago my land line is now not working this is extremely important due to caring for an elderly sick parent that has dementia and his care team have to be able to contact us.

 

To help with the problem I have tried calling my landline number from my mobile phone and this seems to have a constant engaged tone when calling, I have tried all the usable checks and everything my end seems OK. As you will see from your records this is not the first time this has happened and may be an exchange problem.

If someone could test the line I would be most grateful and if fault is found can you please raise the necessary and request this be looked into.

Did you run the phone troubleshooter? https://www.plus.net/my-account/tools/phone-troubleshooter/

Re: Possible land line problems

Hi yes have tried everything apart from plugging in a fixed landline as i do not have one, four members of my family have tried calling my landline phone number from there Mobil phones and it seems to not work and just disconnects so everything is pointing towards there being a problem with the line.

If the troubleshooter found a problem it should have created a ticket which you can get to in your account through the main website. Have a look and see if it found and reported a problem with the line. If it did, it might put your mind at rest.

Re: Possible land line problems

@sacha100 That message is a good sign, it may mean a fault ticket has been raised, can you access your member centre account and check for open questions, otherwise known as tickets?

Re: Possible land line problems

Hi just received an Email stating that the you have completed the changes to my Call Features. We've added the following: 

Call divert.

But when trying to call landline number which i expect to be put though to my Mobile phone it just cuts off as of before as if the land line is dead.
