Why can't I make calls to landlines?

A quick guide to help with calling issues to landlines.

Follow these steps to help diagnose the problem: 

  1. Test calling the landline number again, this time dial the area code as well as the number. e.g. 0114, 01245, 01302 etc. 
    • For calls to connect to other landlines, you must dial the full number including the area code. 
    • Anyone calling your landline must also dial the area code. 
  2. Do you have an internet connection? Please take a look at our troubleshooting guide if you do not.
  3. Are you able to call mobile numbers? If not please take a look at troubleshooting guide for Connect Phone.
