Hi @Biddy-r, thanks for your post and I'm sorry that you're having problems with your landline.

Are you able to kindly advise if:

1. You've made sure all of the connections are secure in your handset.

2. If the battery is fully charged on the handset.

3. What happens when you try and call out, is there any error or tone displayed?

4. What happens from the dialler's end when they try and call you, does it go straight to voicemail for example?

Please respond to these questions and it'll enable me to troubleshoot further for you.

Regards

[Biddy-r]

1. yes

2. Yes

3. get dial tone upon failing a number get continuous long beeb.

4. Calls to me result in 3 short beebs, then cuts off.

Thanks for your replies @Biddy-r and for answering all my questions, that's very helpful.

It's not quite clear why you're experiencing the issues you've got based on your account and the checks I've ran, so I'm going to book an engineer for you as soon as possible to get this fixed.

Firstly though, I'm just going to pop you a quick PM to ask you to confirm a couple of account details just for security!

I'll send this straight away so please respond as soon as possible.

Thank you
