I've contacted Bulldog yesterday, but they can't promise anything until > Monday.

BT - they simply rent it to Bulldog. BT will do any repairs, but probably have to be told to by Bulldog. IIRC.
OK Cheers. When you try to dial out, there is no tone, and you can't even hear the tones dialing.
When you try to dial in, there is a solid very annoying noise.
Sounds like there's no DC on the line - so probably one wire broken somewhere. If you had an old phone which had an led etc which lit up when going hands free etc, that would prove it. Although all phones - except cordless types - are powered from the line, so won't give dialling pulses if there's no DC.
Unobtainable.
Yep, sounds like it to me. Although the Bulldog tones are slightly diffent to BT ones, and it's been awhile since I last recall hearing an unobtainable tone.
