Landline Fault

[Jo17]

Our new line in our new home isn't working, there's no dial tone. Fault reported and it shows as fixed on My BT, however, it's not. Three weeks later and still can't get through to BT on the phone, there's no online chat and the fault checker stops at 99% done so can't re-report it.  Any suggestions?

if new home is it a new build?  do you have FTTP and something like this  

[Jo17]

Hello.

No, there’s just a master socket. 

[imjolly]

have you tried taking front of master socket and connecting to test socket which is now visible

[Jo17]

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, we've tried that. 

To add insult to injury we've just received our first bill, for services we've never been able to use...

Does anyone know how we can actually speak to anyone to report this, as the fault checker isn't working?

[imjolly · Accepted solution]

you need to phone CS 150 or 0800800150 and report phone fault

[Jo17]

Yes, I've been doing that on and off for 3 weeks. The longest I've waiting to get through before giving up is 75 minutes, the shortest 55 mins. I was hoping someone had another number or some other way of making contact. I would use online chat is that was available, but sadly not.
