My new landline phone will make outgoing calls but won't accept incoming. Any ideas why this could be? It rings once and that's it.

Sounds like a fault. Report to your service provider. This tweet has been recorded for training purposes.

Sounds like the perfect landline (is there a hardware switch on the unit to adjust?)

Could be your ADSL connector. If you have a spare try swapping it.

How new is it? Sometimes it takes a little while to get fully sorted (especially if not a BT billed line -- mine's through Sky).

The line's been up since October, it's just the phone that's new - Virgin. Hum.

This is the first phone I've tried - I'll give Virgin a bell when I can bring myself to, I think.

Eugh, good luck -- save it for the New Year. Hope you're out having fun tonight too!
