I had an engineer out to replace our router but ever since then when our home phone rings, the handset doesn't make any noise. You only notice there's an incoming call if you happen to notice the text flashing on the small screen on the handset. I was wondering why we haven't had a phone call in a few days! I have unplugged and replugged the handset into the router but still no joy. I have tried the phone on the neighbours phoneline and it works fine so something isn't right with the router/phone line it seems.

Received a call on my mobile this morning from Virgin and the gentleman on the phone advised that they were going to do some tests and configuration checks on their end for the landline and if they didn't sort it then a 5th engineer would have to call out to do something, possibly a cable re-pull or something along those lines.
A short while later.... the landline rang! We then tried it from various mobiles to check and it rings every time now. So after almost 4 weeks the issue appears to now finally be fixed! Thankfully!

Thanks for your post on our Community Forums @Rick_ and a very warm welcome to you!
Sorry to hear of the issue with the phone not ringing when a call is incoming
Can you please try rebooting the hub and running a test call to see if this rings?
If this doesn't work, please attempt a pin hole reset on the hub and then run a test call for us to see if this can prompt the handset to ring.
Kindest regards,

Hi David
Thanks for your reply. I have rebooted the router and performed a pin reset of the router and unfortunately neither have fixed the problem.

Hi again, had another engineer out on Tuesday of last week, couldn't fix the issue and was told that again it had been escalated to a higher team to look at (something about an 'A5') and was told I would receive a call from that team guaranteed by the end of the day to let me know what was going on and when it would be fixed. It's now the following Monday and I'm still waiting on that phone call...
Also received an e-mail from Virgin saying the issue now appears to be fixed. It most certainly isn't.
It's now been almost 3 weeks of no phone ringing with promises made and none of them fulfilled.

Hello Rick_
Sorry to hear this is still not working
I am more than happy to take a look at this for you
I will need to send you a private message to pass security
If you can check the purple envelope top right of your screen that would be great
