My Virgin landline has been out of action since yesterday and an engineer isn't due to come out til tomorrow night. I know I can probably wait til then but this fault has happened too many times now. When I pick up the phone there is no dialling tone at all it is dead, but if someone phones me the phone rings my end and when I pick the phone up, I can hear what the person who is calling me can hear ie, a ringing tone. I have unplugged my phone, plug it back in and nothing rectifies this, I have even tried a different phone but it is definitely the line. This has happened too many times now. When the engineer turns up they say they can't find a fault but it miraculously works after their investigations. What is going on? Thanks for any advice.
Does sound like possible ingress somewhere.... maybe a repull is required? Advise the engineer when he comes about the other faults, he may book a repull in for you if he thinks it will help.
