External bell for new phone line

Hi,

Ive been switched over to the new digital line. I have lost the use of my old analog external ringer.

Our business is a loud factory and we are missing incoming calls if no one is in the office

Is there anyway to solve this problem

    Hi wattonj 👋.

    Thanks for reaching out to us, apologies that you are having issues with your external bell no longer being linked to the new digital voice switchover, with you being a business, we would advise reaching out to Virgin Business to see if there is anything in place to facilitate your needs, as a residential forum we do not have anything In place to assist you. 

    They are contactable here 📞 0800 052 0800.

    I hope this helps.

    Extend the cable from the bell to the VM Hub, use an RJ11 or a BT splitter to enable the bell and office phone to be connected at the same time.

    if the ringer has an RJ11 connection get an RJ11 splitter and a length of RJ11 cable and connect as per this diagram.
