I've recently had full fibre installed and my landline number has mysteriously got an extra two zeros on the end so consequently I cannot receive calls to the landline number. I can ring out from it but can't receive incoming calls

That's probably the cause, in that case. It routinely takes 24 hours or so for phone service activation to complete. If you have a black broadband Hub, I'd suggest leaving it until Thursday, then restarting your Hub and your ONT by switching both off at the plug for a few minutes (if it's a white Hub, leave them off for an hour). If that doesn't resolve it, give Sky a call.

Re: Wrong landline number after full fibre instal
@Neen I suspect activation of the telephone service hasn't completed yet. When was your broadband service activated?

Re: Wrong landline number after full fibre instal
Hi Mark. Just an update. My landline began working fine at around 8pm last evening. So it took around 6 hours to revert back to normal. Thanks for the advice.
