Title: Southern landline phone question
Post by: AustinPowers on June 20, 2022, 09:45:41 PM
Folks, hoping someone can help

Im ringing from the North ,  trying to reach a relative in the South all day on  their landline

It doesn't actually ring, but  a voice says "the number you have dialled is not answering. Please try again later "

I'm not familiar with the South's  phone networks. So I'm not sure if this phone is off the hook, out of service or engaged

Can anyone confirm?

It doesn't sound like something you would get on old fashioned landline, but things are more varied nowadays.
Could the number have been redirected to a mobile or VOIP type service?

It's off the hook or pulled out of the wall and has no voicemail set up on it

I probably should have said it  was an urgent matter.
