My landline has stopped recieving calls and placing calls. It was working fine last night.

When I dial out it says this number is temporarily unavailable, and when i dial my mobile (not EE but another provider) it says this number is unavailable.

My broadband connection seems to be working fine for the computer and mobile.

I have unplugged the phone line and the power cable and replugged after about 10 seconds - and the phone still doesnt work. I called the tech folk but there is a 45min wait. Any suggestions?

Yes cannot get any calls in or out 

Is anyone else having trouble with making or receiving calls    Just I am waiting for a very important call from hospital 

Unable to make or receive calls on landline

Tried calling 03301231105 for help and support but to no avail as just goes dead

Not sure where to go from here ?

Any ideas as I use ( and pay for ) my landline frequently ?

My landline is down, although broadband is working, so I can't call 150.  I have found three alternative numbers for ee, but none of them works!  When I was with BT I could report a defect online, ee's messy website doesn't seem to permit this.  What a hopeless system, I'm not reviewing my contract to see how soon I can leave.

ByStander if you have a mobile you can use 150. I misread the original suggestion and contacted them via my mobile. Either way, it doesn't matter as it is a nation wide problem for BT&EE landline customers. Broadband is fine just not landlines. It should be working tomorrow.  

A thank you to all those who messaged and gave suggestions.
