Callers can't phone me - "congestion on the line"

I live in Gulfview Heights and have discovered that people are unable to phone us because they get a message that there is "congestion on the line". Obviously I have no way of telling when this happens because I don't get the call!  Can you please fix this for me?

Thanks for providing the account details via PM, @jackdavis42. We have checked the status of your VoIP service and it shows registered and it should be working properly. Have you tried calling your home phone number using your mobile phone? Are you getting the same error message?

Was this resolved? What caused the "congested" message?

When I called my home phone today - same message. Phone has been out for about 3 or 4 days now.
