My home phone has no dial tone and I'm unable to receive calls. Failed yesterday.
Have had Virginmedia package for many years, Broadband still working. There have been no changes recently to home infrastructure or equipment.
Have:
Next step is to arrange technical support and/or book, if required, an engineer as soon as possible.
Website suggests booking engineer. No apparent facility to book.
Any ideas?

I am in the same boat. The website sends you in circles, you can't use 150 to ask for technical support so this is it. Hopefully someone from the team here can setup a technician booking.
