(Virgin/Ntl line).
Phone rings, lift handset and hear sound of ring tone as if I have called someone. (But I haven't). I put it the handset down before anyone (potentially) answers.
Sometimes there is no ringtone but just background (line) noise - as if someone is on the line, but not speaking. However no voices whatsoever heard. If I replace the handset the line is still in use if I pick it up again. Is like this for 2-3 minutes before I can get the usual dial-tone.
The above has happened several times now. Are there two differnt things going on? Or are both part of teh same problem?
Any telcomm types out there know what may be happening? Thanks
