  • Hi there Belladonna1 👋 Welcome to the forum and thanks for your post 😊

    Sorry to see you've been having issues with your landline after a local power cut. This could have an effect if your line running to the house is connected to one that was affected by a power cut. However being around 15 mins away this may not be the case. How's the landline looking for you this morning?

    If you're still having issues we have a service checker here where you can see if there's any known issues affecting any of your services. You can also sign in via your My VM log in details to run a fault test with the connection.

    If that is of no help, we also have a landline support page for further help here.

    Let us know if you need anything further, we're always happy to help.

    Regards

    Nathan

        We're glad to hear the phone is fixed. Does it advise it is a reported issue? If so, does it advise an estiamted fix date?
