~Grey Nomad: Loud buzzing on our phone to the point where a conversation is untenable. I am on a rural property & this is an ongoing problem, since ****, especially after rain. The fault lies with the Telstra lines & they repeatedly ignored my requests for service, hence my move to OPTUS. When I contacted OPTUS yesterday I played a recording of the noise to their service representative. She took my mobile number then asked me to hang up the landline phone. Within seconds she called back on my mobile & explained that she suspected the fault to be at the local hub. She explained that she will immediately start the fault reporting procedure & if I could wait would try & get the problem sorted for me. The process took ** minutes & took * calls to various people on her part, she reported her progress to me after each call. Finally she issued a fault report number to me & told me the process for rectifying the fault was underway. Now around * hours later my phone is noise free & the best it's been in lit
