Yes both these latest re-syncs coincided with incoming phone calls on the landline, one annoyingly from a scammer claiming to be TT.
My problem with these calls is because I might get a genuine TT call I have to answer all calls. Currently there is no way to easily identify these scammer as too much information about TT users is out there. I have written to Dido Harding about this today in the hope she will try to do something, I suggested a while ago that they allow users to set a calling password or phrase on their account which TT must user if they call which would help.

Yet another re-sync now back to only U0 U/S SNRM band in use, no phone calls this time.

If the line goes bad again, and you arrange an engineer, and then the line appears "fixed" shortly before the engineer's arrival, can you just keep making calls into the line to trigger it back to "bad"?

Well I did try that before but it did not work, worth a try again certainly though.

Well the line has recovered and yes looks banded at 60/20 which is not bad if it is reliable although I'd prefer it not banded. Once it recovered I did try yesterday phoning home to see if it still hit the SNRM and yes it does but so far no enough to cause a re-sync, I'll see what happens later today and whether or not it goes bad on its own or whether from phoning home.

Well while we were out today it all went pear shaped once again around midday and recovered by about 14:00.
Now to see what TT's network team will say this time.
