Intermittent dial tone

Hi,

I get these weird beeps before my phone actually dials a number. I called 150, and was told this was an intermittent dial tone, and that it just meant that I had a voicemail (and to call 1571). 

I called 1571 and no voicemail was waiting. I finished the initial setup of the voicemail (I'm relatively new to Virgin), and hoped that that would do it, but no, I still have the funny tones before the phone dials the number I've put in.

Any ideas? I've done some searching and I'm not in the Midlands! I see someone else had this issue and someone from Virgin did something in the backend to fix it. Hopefully someone will pick up on this.

Sorry Katie I have checked and it's still not a constant tone.

I will check again in the morning

Thanks Witchy43 - I am sorry about this; not sure as to why this would be. 

 

Please leave yourself another message and leave it for a couple of hours and then try listening, deleting and try again for me. 

 

Cheers

Hi - I'm having the same intermittent dial tone issue and live in the red zone.

Hi helpme63

Have you tried dialling 1571 to see if you have any messages waiting to be retrieved 

If you still need help then let me know, So I can send you a Privater Message and look into this in more detail

Yes, no messages 

Good luck mine is still an intermittent dial tone has been for over 2 years, although I am more confident now that it doesn't actually affect my use of the landline and I dont think anyone is tapping in to my calls lol

I also have an intermittent dial tone on my phone. I have not set up voicemail and don’t believe I have any messages (I’ve dialled 1571) and I am not in the blue zone. Please can you help?

many thanks
