Landline phone not working

[AshU]

I have plugged the house phone into the back of the router and the voice light is green. I can make outbound calls, however, I can't accept inbound calls. When you phone the landline it doesn't even phone/ring. Any help would be great?

This may be connected to your post on the Broadband forum. Have you just / are you in the process of changing provider to Sky? Dial 17070 from your landline. Does it tell you your correct landline number?

@AshU  Have you tried another phone in the back of the router other than the one you have?

@AshU previous posts suggest it can be 24 hours before activation is fully complete, so if your activation date is today, it may not be until tomorrow thay your phone service is fully functional.

When I phone that number it rings and appears to answer but there is no reply.

I am unable to make any outbound landline phone calls, inbound is ok.  I am vulnerable adult and sky-s virtual assistant is not helpful.  Please help

It could be worth considering registering with the Sky Accessibility Team who may be able to help now or in the future. Once registered there are also different methods of communication with this team other than phoning

I NEED the phone to work, non negotiable

I've removed your other post as I'd already offered advice on this one. Please remember we are mainly fellow customers on here trying to help other customers and you’re not contacting Sky Customer Services by posting on the forum.

I need a Sky human being to address this problem, it is urgent

@SimonW12 

Try the link in my last post. After that come back on this thread if you still need help and we may be able to escalate your issue to Sky but contact won't be tonight. 

[SimonW12]

I already did all that, got the virtual assistant which is useless, need a sky human being

[SimonW12]

I did try that, no luck, thank you for trying tho. this needs a Sky human, as I've said all along

You don't appear to be fully reading the replies. Do you want your post escalating to Sky. They will be able to check your line and if an external line fault is found they will pass it to Openreach to investigate.
