Slow Broadband & no phone

Hi All

 

Have recently been experiencing slow broadband speeds of 12-15 mbs rather than my normal 54. When I run the Sky test it agrees with the speed but states that there is a problem amber status warning & that I should arrange an Engineer visit. Now over the weekend I have lost my telephone land line , no dial tone just sounds like an open line.

Question is am I reqiured to pay for the Engineer visit & any ideas how much this might be.

 

Thanks

After speaking with reefrite we ran a line test which detected a in-home issue and we have arranged for an Openreach engineer to attend the property shortly.

It was great speaking with you reefrite and thanks again.

Thanks
Tom

@reefrite  Please be aware images need to be approved before they appear as mentioned in the text box prior to posting, your duolicate post has been moved.

 

Please note also what you have posted are not your router stats and gives the forum no information that can be used.  The image does show you mac addresses and wifi name so this has also been rejected.

@cookiemonsteruk  Sorry, yes, look really bad for a FTTC line, hopefully Sky can get to the bottom of the issue.

 

With those speeds you could be mistaken for being on ADSL.
