Hi, our landline phone hasn't worked since Friday morning last week. It's not just our house, it also affects other neighbours in our street in the Romford RM7 area.
Mobile phones have been used to contact CS, I don't think sending smoke signals in the back yard will get noticed.

One neighbour was told they would send someone out for Tuesday afternoon - five days later, which we think is an appauling amount of time to wait, (I thought the maximum downtime for this sort of thing was 48 hours???)
To add insult to injury no-one came out Tuesday and it is still dead as of writing, Wednesday afternoon.

{sigh}..Looks like sending smoke signals would have been cheaper -with same result.

Can anyone help?
