My land line is used by medical professionals etc to call in.  In the last few days, two have said that the phone had not been no answered, when I was in all the time.

 

I have now checked and if I call the home landline from my mobile it doesn't ring BUT if I call my mobile from home, a different number shows.  If I then call that number (not our number) the home land line rings. HELP

@kanya-TT I thought you had access to customers profiles and private notes. If not that's a major change to how we stars respond and we have not been informed if so.

Yes, I put the incorrect number that is now associated with my phone in the private notes. Call this number and my landline phone rings. Call from my landline and this is the number that shows up as the caller on my mobile.

Thank you for the clarity. But we need to know what is the incorrect number that is being dialed and is it a constant number?

I have had 3 medical and care professionals try to call in the last 5 days. It rings for them on the line, as it does for me from my mobile, but the phone itself does not actually ring, so there is no call to answer.  When the incorrect number is called, the phone rings and can be answered.

So, the issue here would be the actual Home Telephone number is not working or its now showing? and has anyone else tried to call your Telephone number and what was their response.

You tell me. If i ring my actual phone number from my mobile, the land line phone does not ring out. If call the incorrect number from my mobile, my land line rings. The call been be answered. 

If I call my mobile from my land line. It shows as the incorrect number, and not as our home number.

As far as i know, it is only the land line. It can call out and it receives calls on the incorrect number when i call from my mobile. It does not ring when the actual number is dialled.

It's likely that this won't be picked up by staff on here before the morning, @KPB26.

 

Please look out for their response during the day.
