I do not hate VM. just because my posts are not what you want to hear it doesn't mean I hate them. hate is a strong word. I don't hate anyone.

It was not my sister. I had one sister she is dead.
I don't know why you missed the part where I've already explained the source of the quote.

If you have this fault, we manually datafill the line to disc it.

Re: Virgin Media in trouble with police

Back on topic and enough of the digs

This kind of thing happens quite often with BT and VM phonelines. The Police have to respond to all 999 calls but can reduce the priority if there are multiple false calls from one number.

Re: Virgin Media in trouble with police

this is a common problem caused by water ingress ,either the copper cable feeding the cab is wet or a joint in the system is wet,[can allso be caused by wet cross connect modules]which is the most common cause of this fault .fluctuating voltages simulate number dialing

Re: Virgin Media in trouble with police

The fault is simulating someone dialling 112. As said previously this is a common problem. Unfortunately I don't have an "in" at faults these days.

quite correct arch,most of the ones i go to the call centre have actually called the switch and removed the datafill so as it cant keep generating these calls until such time as the tech can visit.
