Cannot make or receive calls - bootedfrom phone helpline!!

Hi Sky

 

I just spent 15 minutes on hold to helpline  only to get booted with a 'service not available' message Grrrrrrr...  

 

My landline is not working.  Broadband is fine.  I have tried a corded phone at the master socket (all extensions disconnected) and the problem persists.  When ringing the number and lifting the receiver a very faint ringing can be heard.

 

I think I had this before and a reset at the exchange was actioned.   If only I could get through to Sky somehow !🤔

Hi there, I’ve escalated your post to our Community Messaging team who will invite you to a private chat shortly and help you with this. 

Just look out for the colourful bubble to start the conversation.

Update:  I tried the 03 number provided at 20:30 ish on Friday 29th and it is an automated  service that performs a line check.  It found a fault and I was advised that BT Openreach will text me and repair in 2 days, no home visit needed.

 

Nothing heard yet hopefully Monday will see some action, fingers crossed....

That will have been 2 working days. The Openreach target fix times are 2 days but no guarantee.

Hi @Ea.man 

 

An invite was sent but there was no response within 48 hours so it has automatically closed.

If you still need help with this please let us know by posting on the forum again and we will get it escalated through to us.

Thanks
Tom
