Bit of an odd one - my landline, which I cancelled a month ago as I have gone down the VOIP route, started ringing. This is one of the copper lines that VM installed, and it still has a cordless phone plugged in (just haven't got round to removing it).

Yesterday, it rang! It was a generic call centre, one of those white label outfits going by the number. The line has no dial tone (expected) but yet it rang. It rang again today, and I managed to answer it, but it kept on ringing albeit all crackled up in my ear once picked up. Eventually I gave up and hung up.

Anyone ever experienced this?
