I am unable to make or receive calls on my home phone

Since Saturday I have had no home phone working, I cannot make or receive calls. I have a message on my phone 'Line cord error' I have changed the phone to a corded one, still no signal. The most frustrating thing is that I cannot get any further than that virtual assistant, I need to speak to sky to get it sorted.. can someone advise how I can get directly through to sky. Thanks

Re: I am unable to make or receive calls on my home phone

Hi,

I have the same problem as reported by others - broadband working fine but home phone has not worked for several weeks, can't make or receive calls, no dial tone

have tried all the recommended fixes but no luck - including using a separate phone, different socket etc.

How do I get OpenReach to check my line and fix it?

Give Sky a ring to report the fault - they'll engage Openreach as necessary.

Re: I am unable to make or receive calls on my home phone

Thanks but I have several issues with that:

a) The problem is the land line is not working hence I can't ring them

b) There is no mobile signal where I live

c) I can't find any phone number to actually talk to a human being !!

Any suggestions?

@Adrian+New+Forest I can alert Sky and the Community adviser team may be able to help via the forum, if you wish. It will be via online messaging and responses from Sky aren't immediate.
