just recently, must be the last day or two, i have no dial tone but if i call the number from another phone it rings (but not the actual phone in my house, if you know what i mean).
i checked the connections and tried a different home phone but still not working.
is there anything else to try or should i just contact virgin?

Contact Virgin, sounds like something has broken in the exchange, happened to me when I moved house and the engineer sorted it from the exchange, didn't even have to come round to the house.

That's perfectly normal for it to ring, but not at the premises. What you hear is the ringing at the exchange.

Perfectly normal when there's a no dial tone fault, I mean

I@ve got exactly the same at the moment, realised last night when I tried to ring someone but it may have started a few days before that as I don't use my landline much. I'm in north inner(ish) London
