My mum has an emergency red button and her phone line and broadband are down.
I have logged a fault and the system says it will be fixed in 48 hrs, but she is very vulnerable and has been on the floor all night before.
Does anyone know how to get BT to prioritise mending her fault? All I get is bots and text messages. I'm going round and round in circles. Impossible to talk to anyone.
Please help!

No, I don't think she is. I'll do that now. Do you think it will help?

Hi @db74,
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Community. I'm sorry if your mom has been left without a working telephone service. If you send me the details, I'll take a look at the details of the fault to see if there is anything we can do to speed up the repair.
I have sent you a private message with instructions on how to contact the team. You can access your messages via the envelope icon at the top right of the screen, or click on this link, Private messages
Thanks,
Paddy
