Hi @Mand65,

Welcome to our Community Forums! Thank you for your first post, and I am very sorry to hear that you've been experiencing an issue with your landline since Friday! Apologies that calling in did not help resolve your issue.

After taking a look at our systems, I can see that there is an area fault impacting your TV, broadband, and landline services. The outage fault number is F009653608 and was raised on Saturday 19th February and is estimated to be fixed by Thursday 24th February by 13:00.

Please reboot your equipment tomorrow after 1pm to clear any other issues on the line and let us know if this has resolved your ongoing issues.

Keep us updated if you can. Thank you.

Hi @Mand65,

Thank you for coming back to us. After checking our systems, I can see that the area fault F009653608 impacting your TV, broadband and landline services is still ongoing. The estimated fix time has been amended and is currently showing as Monday 28/02/22 at 9am.

I understand that this is not ideal, and you can take a look into our Automatic Compensation Scheme on our website for more information in regards to this.

Looks like we've got the same problem. We have reset and re-plugged everything back in but still no dial tone. PO7 7PJ. Looks like the area fault F009653608 is still ongoing. When will it be fixed please??

Hi stu4anita,

A warm welcome and thanks for posting on our community forums. Sorry to hear that you're currently experiencing issues with no dial tone on your landline since being affected by this area fault.

We can certainly understand the inconvenience this issue is causing you. 

Remotely checking the systems from our end this morning, no area faults are showing, which means the issue has been resolved.

Do you have any dial tone back currently?

Kind regards Jodi.

No, still not dial tone this morning

Many thanks for coming back to me stu4anita,

If you still have no dial tone, can we ask if you have tried another handset in the master socket, just to eliminate its not the equipment causing the issue.

Also, if you have any extension sockets, fax machines or other alarm systems attached to you line, please unplug these and juts have the main handset plugged in only.

If you have digital handsets, please make sure it is seated in its cradle correctly and the volume is turned up loud. 

Please can you check the above first, if this does not resolve, we will investigate this further for you.

Kind regards Jodi.
