TELEPHONE 'OUT OF SERVICE' INTERNET AND WIRELESS WORKING

We've been having countless problems with NOWTV ... the wireless disconnects and we completely lose the internet connection, but today I received a message from my sister in law - via my tablet, that she had been trying to get through to us on the landline - but just gets the 'out of service' message.     I tried to use the phone - and just get the 'engaged' signal after the first two numbers dialed.     I have tried and tried to get in touch with NOW via email - but there seems to be no live chat button .. and am getting hugely frustrated.   I need the phone as I am a carer for my 90 years plus mother - who is blind and has numerous health issues.         Can anyone suggest anything - other than switching to another provider as my contract doesn't run out until August.

Yes, have poured over the website and tried everything.     People are getting a 'this line is out of service' message when they try to ring ... and I hear a dial tone when I pick up the phone to make a call ... but after hitting two numbers I get the engaged tone.

That sounds very frustrating. We don’t use our landline at all, also we are with BT so I can’t be much more help.

 

All I can really suggest is to call the support team and hopefully they can get it fixed for you.

No broadband service, red light for internet on modem. Been this way for a few hours. Tried calling, no answer. I don’t use the landline as t all so I just notice the broadband does not work, and it was fine before, no changes to settings or cables. This is a NOW problem but they don’t answer their phone lines

I cant use the phone line which is awful as my mother is disabled and as a family we need to check in on here every couple of hours to ensure she is OK. How can i get to speak with someone?
