Caller ID not working

Hi. Ever since moving from Sky in 2021, caller ID has not worked. I only raised this with plusnet support in January this year as it is now more important than before.
I have had multiple questions open with support who say they've switched the service off and on and I've ensured the BT caller ID service is on.
I've tried another phone that is known to work with caller id but still no joy.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

Re: Caller ID not working

Hey there @acsimpson17 

 

Is it still not working now at all? I can see that the fault has been closed on the BT side!

Re: Caller ID not working

Noooo!! Guess I will have to raise it again to find out what's going on and have an open ticket rather than it closing. I am so sorry about this.

Re: Caller ID not working

No worries, it can be a real pain when it's not working as you never know when to pick up the phone and when not to. I ended up ditching my landline for that reason really.

Re: Caller ID not working

Hi Will, 

Apologies, Ive been away for a few weeks.  

I have received an email from plusnet support saying that question 233236784 has been closed as "The fault has now closed with our suppliers."

However, on testing Caller ID again this morning - it still simply says "Incoming Call"

Regards

 

Andrea

Re: Caller ID not working

Hi Andrea, no worries and I'm really sorry that's still not fixed. I've taken ownership of this for you as I feel that would be helpful to get it resolved. I've made Openreach aware that this is still an issue and I've popped an update on your account here: https://www.plus.net/wizard/?p=view_question&id=233236784

 

I should have some news on this for you within the next 48 hours so I'll be back in touch when that comes through. 

 

Adam

Hi @acsimpson17 Just a quick update to let you know that I'm still awaiting an update on this from Openreach, I'll get that chased up again for you when I'm back on shift again next Tuesday.

Re: Caller ID not working

Thank you for the confirmation.

The Openreach engineer has been and has identified a high resistance fault, potentially with the router. 

He has suggested that Plusnet send out a new router to replace this one.

Is that something you can organise please.
