Since a power cut on Tuesday my landline has been dead - no dial tone and calls to my number just result in a call failed message
Other Virgin users in teh area are experiencing the same issue however the website states no known issues?

Hi, our landline has been out for a couple of days and VM initially advised that it was not an area issue. They arranged for an engineer and then i received an email yesterday stating that it was an area fault.
Called them this morning to be advised that the engineers are working hard and the fault would be fixed asap.. I subsequently received a text to get the latest updates and the link stated that there was no known faults in the E11 area. I spoke to the call centre who have advised the phone line should be fixed by 21.00 tonight... I won't hold my breath... dismal service and the link still states no faults..

The dial tone has just returned and appears to be working okay now thank you.
I didn't do any of the tests, I assume that engineers have rectified the fault in the mentioned elsewhere on this forum.
I phoned VM earlier and got an automated message stating that engineers were working on the known issue which would be rectified today.
