If your BT landline is not working, first check if there's an ongoing service outage in your area. BT’s website or their customer service can provide this information. Ensure all cables are securely plugged in and if possible, try a different phone in the socket to rule out handset issues. Restart your connection by unplugging the phone and plugging it back in after a minute. If none of these steps work, contact BT customer service directly for assistance or to report a fault. They might schedule a technician visit if the issue can't be resolved remotely.
