I'm sorry if this is either not appropriate to post here or in the wrong forum. I wasn't sure where to post it. Feel free to delete/move as appropriate.

Basically I have a weird fault on my line that my provider, Utility Warehouse, have not been able to diagnose and therefore fix.

If I call my number 9 times out of 10, I get through. The phones in the house ring, and if nobody answers, they get our Panasonic answering machine eventually.

Sometimes if I (or others) ring my home number, the handset receiver just plays the ringing tone but at home, the phones don't ring, the Panasonic never takes over playing the answer recorded greeting and if you do 1471 it's as if the call never took place.

Any ideas?!
