No phone servu

[neil501]

Hi

i have no dialling tone, if I call the land line it’s permanently engaged.

I’ve tried a different hand set it makes no difference.

the service checker for my area is ok.

no way to contact virgin media??? Why?

Hello @neil501,

Welcome, thanks for posting.

I am sorry for the issue with your landline.

Is this connected through your Hub or connected at the wall? When someone calls you can they hear you on their side?

Many thanks,

[neil501]

Thanks for getting back to me,

it’s in the wall socket, the phone doesn’t ring you only get the engaged tone if you call the landline
