    <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="5"&gt;Is there a problem in your area?&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;You can check &lt;A title="Is there a problem in my area?" href="https://servicestatus.sky.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Sky's service status page&lt;/A&gt; for any known issues at your telephone exchange or planned maintenance (maintenance usually takes place in the early hours to impact the fewest number of people)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="5"&gt;Check your home setup&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;I recommend double-checking all the cables and connections are secure. Whilst trying to identify the root cause of your Sky Talk issue, if possible, remove extension cables, telephone splitters or any non-essential equipment.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="3"&gt;If you're new to Sky Talk and have no dial tone (and the broadband is working) you may have &lt;A title="Internet Calls from Sky" href="https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/Talk/Internet-Calls/m-p/3144713#M52925" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;Internet Calls from Sky&lt;/A&gt;. In this case, try plugging your landline into the phone socket on the back of your Sky Broadband Hub.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="5"&gt;Run a telephone line test&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Using &lt;A title="Test your line" href="https://www.sky.com/help/home/sky-talk/fix-problems-with-my-phone/diagnostics/fix-problems-with-your-phone/check-your-phone-line" target="_self"&gt;this link&lt;/A&gt;, sign in with your Sky ID and select the answers which match the issue your facing. Then, if offered, run a line test.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If the line test detects a fault on the line, you can arrange an Openreach engineer to investigate the fault and save yourself a call - if your broadband is also down, don't worry, you can run the test using 3G/4G on your mobile phone.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If an external fault isn't detected, you'll be presented with some steps which may help you solve the problem. If they're also unsuccessful, you'll see an option to ' get in touch'. Select this and you'll be presented with the best contact options - see image below.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-center" image-alt="The best contact option.png" style="width: 442px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://helpforum.sky.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/49950iF0EB37F524FAF30D/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="The best contact option.png" alt="The best contact option.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT size="4"&gt;You can also start your own discussion in the &lt;A title="Sky Talk community" href="https://community.sky.com/t5/Talk/bd-p/SkyTalkTechnical" target="_self"&gt;Sky Talk community.&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
