Land line

[newboy]

Hi, I have tried to check on open case for landline. it says fixed on 4/11/2024.

Fault still same but I cannot run connection test as case is open?  which is correct . fault still exists, and cannot reach anyone in chat. Phone no use as I have hearing problems. Anyone assist. Thanks. (needed a rant)

Hi @newboy 

Thanks for your reply.

Are there any specific days you aren't available for an engineer? I can then book the first available visit based upon your availability.

I can arrange the Openreach engineer visit for you.

Please can you provide your availability for this visit AM and PM?

Can you also confirm potential Engineer charges

Thanks

Hi Chris,

yes please. I cannot think  of what to try next, so need someone to look at my setup.

Hi Chris,

 Yes tried in test socket.  I have two sockets.

thanks.

Hi newboy,

Did you try with the telephone connected to the test socket (the socket under the master socket faceplate)? 

How many telephone sockets do you have in your home?

Hi Karl,

I have tried an old corded phone I had ,same result. also tried in master socket,  slightly better but still crackly.

Thanks

Hi

OK, before we look to arrange an engineer, just a couple of quick questions. 

Have you tested another handset to rule out a fault with this, or tested it at a friends or neighbours so you are sure this is working correctly ?

Have you tested directly at the master socket of 'Test Socket' if you have one ?

Thanks  

Karl.

Hi Debbie,  Thanks for reply, 

No, I do not have a no dial tone fault.  It is just very noisy,  crackles a lot. 

I am hard of hearing as it is, this just makes it impossible.

Hi @newboy 

I'm really sorry about this.

The line tests are clear. Do you have a no dial tone fault?
