Virgin Landline phone not working, no dial tone

I’ve recently join Virgin Media and have broadband, a TV streaming box and Virgin landline phone, all of which have been fully functioning since joining. Today 23rd November my Virgin media landline phone has stopped working (no dialing tone). I phoned the landline from my mobile and received the message “Not been possible to connect your call please try again later”. My broadband and streaming box are still fully functioning. I checked the status of my installation on the Virgin media app which indicated that broadband, Tv streaming and phone are all okay, however, logging onto my hub 5 the status shows the Telephone as disabled. I have checked all phone connections to my hub 5 which appear to be okay. Can anyone advise me how to get my virgin media landline operational again.

Hi there @Smartguy 

Thank you so much for your post and welcome to the community forums, it's great to have you back here. 

I am so sorry that you have faced this issue after recently joining us. Can I ask if the phone is attached at the Hub or the wall? 

Have you had a number port set up at all?

Hi Ashleigh_C thanks for the prompt reply.

I can confirm that the phone is connected directly into the hub 5 and has been fully operational until today.

Also Porting of the landline from my previous broadband provider had been completed.

Thank you @Smartguy for popping back to me.

Can I ask if you are able to try a pin hole reset? To do this push a pen etc into the reset hole and hold in for 60 seconds. This will force a full factory reset so if you have changed any WiFi details such as the password it will revert to the original but you can reset these again afterwards.

Thank for that suggestion Ashleigh_C

I’ve reset the hub 5 for 60 seconds as you suggested and reconfigured it for modem mode as I’m using may original router. Broadband and streaming is up and running as before. Unfortunately the hub 5 is still showing as ‘Telephone disabled’ and it’s still not working.

Thank you for trying this @Smartguy and I am sorry this has not resolved things. 

I'm going to pop you over a private message so we can take a closer look. I will pop you a PM across now, please keep an eye out for the envelope at the top of your screen alerting you to a new message.
