Hi Garypac,

Thanks for posting and welcome to the community. I am sorry to hear of the landline issue. 

Are you plugged into the master socket? It will have a larger socket and contain a logo of Virgin Media, NTL, Telewest or Nynex. Any extension sockets will be smaller and have no logo.

Do you have any other pieces of equipment connected to your phone socket? This may include:
• Other telephones 
• Personal Computers 
• Faxes 
• Modems 
• Satellite TV digiboxes 
• Micro-filters 
• ADSL modem or router

• Check the phone is seated in the base unit correctly & powered ON. 
• Remove all other equipment connected to telephone sockets. 
• Unplug the phone and check another phone directly into the main socket ensuring this is a VM socket and not one with a BT or Sky logo. If no alternative handset is available then ensure the original phone is plugged into the main socket with no other pieces of equipment being plugged in.

Best wishes,

[Garypac]

Hi John yes phone is plugged into main socket there is nothing else plugged in

Thank you @Garypac

And just to clarify please, were you able to check a different handset?

Can you also ensure the handset is in the holder correctly and turned on?

Please pop back to us when you can.

no other handset is available but current handset if fully working as it should be

Thank you @Garypac

I think it would be best for us to arrange for an engineer to come and check this for you. 

I'll pop you a PM now so we can arrange this, please keep an eye out for the purple envelope in the top of the right screen alerting you to a new message. 

Thank you.
