Thanks so much

Morning,

I'm sorry to hear this. I've run a test on the line now which hasn't detected a fault and it is showing that the router is not in sync. Just to confirm, do you have a dial tone? Does your main socket have a test socket? Do you have an alternative router that you can test with?

Thanks

Thanks so much for getting back to me. We do have a dial tone on the phone. We don’t have another router to test. The BT box on the wall allows us to take the front off and plug in a phone like. We tried with a micro filter and still no joy.

Morning,

Ok thanks for testing the router at the test socket. Would you like us to send a replacement router for testing purposes to rule this out?

Thanks

Thank you. Yes I would be very grateful if you could send the router to test. Thanks again

Hi sarahmonie

Thanks for your reply.

The replacement router is on its way, please allow 24-48hrs for this to arrive.

Let us know how the connection compares with the new router.

Thanks

Debbie

Thank you so much. They said they couldn’t do this on the talk talk chat that I spent 3 hours on over the weekend. Incredibly grateful for all the help from you both this morning

Hi there

The order for the replacement router was showing yesterday and has now vanished?

They agreed to send an engineer between 12-3 yesterday who never turned up!

More chats and more lies! Said to wait up to. 24 hours for the vaccine engineer

Just worried they have cancelled the router that was being sent.

Thanks

Hi Sarah

I'm so sorry to hear this.

I've checked and the router hasn't been cancelled so you should still receive this.
