Naturally, when I reported the fault initially they said it was my DECT phone as my fixed line phones are working fine. I am reluctant to log it as a fault again with NTL for fear of being charged a call-out fee but am very frustrated that for the 9 weeks I've been on NTL I can't use my cordless phones.
I checked my phone line voltages on the master socket (against earth):
0V = -3V
48V = 42V
Question: is 42 volts too low and causing me the problem?

Possibly .... I was also threatened with a call out fee, but was positive that it was a problem with NTL. If you are sure that it is an NTL problem, stick to your guns, get them out to investigate, you generally get more information from the engineers anyway
good Luck
