    Hi carl8, 

    Thanks for taking the time to contact us via the Community. It's lovely having you on board with us in the Forums. ⭐

    We're sorry to hear you've been having issues with your landline service, and more recently had a broadband fault. I'm afraid we're not able to backdate any faults for compensation. 

    Whenever you have a fault, with any of your services, it's always best to have a look here. From that link, you'll be able to check if there's a fault in the area, test your line, replace your equipment or book an engineer visit if it's needed. This will also register an open fault for automatic compensation. 

    Your broadband hub is showing as being online for over 24 days. It's worth giving it a reboot to help refresh things. Please turn it off at the mains for a few minutes before powering back on. 

    In terms of the landline, we'll need to take a closer look at this, as well as looking at your package for you. In order to do that I'll need to confirm some information with you to pass security, so I've sent you a direct message to allow us to do this with you in a private space. Just click on the little ✉ at the top right-hand side of the page to access your inbox. 😊

    Many thanks,
