Phoneline is crackling

[wanbli]

Please help my phone line is crackling bad and i cant hear on the phone, i can make  calls and receive calls it is not the first time iv had the problem and a engineer solved it last year,  i have tried unplugging and checking the cabels, i have a wireless phone, but i tried in a phone with wire and it is still the same, i cant afford to pay to call sky on my mobile as it is pay as you go and the last time i was £9. not sure how to test my line or get a engineer to fix this crackling. Kind Regards to anyone who can help.

The chances are there is a fault outside of your property somewhere so see if you can run this line test to see if a fault is found outside of your property and if something is found you can book an engineer repair, ignore the fact it says it will test your broadband:

You can also run this test via the MySky app.

Let us know how you get on.

When the chat bubble does appear you have 48 hours to respond or it will be automatically closed. This isn't a live chat so replies are not instant.

My dad has exactly the same issue and his elderly and I can't hear him on the phone. Can someone from sky please be able to help fix this. Thank you

It will be much better if Sky or maybe the Messaging Team can contact you when you are at your Dads as they will need to check the line… that's providing you can pass the security questions for your Dads account.

Your story seems to have changed. Initially it was your dads phone. Who's phone is it and more importantly who is the account holder?

Hi we are having the same issue. Do I need to open a new discussion for this to be escalated? I have clicked the link and tested the broadband and it says everything is ok

Hi there @Molly+me , 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.
