Strange home phone !!!

The ring of my home phone has changed from Brr Brrrrr Brr Brrr
to BRRRRRR BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
where it carries on ringing constantly until it is picked up. I have magically joined voice mail!!
I have disconnected phones and have moved them about but it's still different.. My interenet seems 'different' too.
I'm with talktalk
Any ideas ???
TIA
D

    Talk to talktalk. Seems like a problem with your line. Mistakes do happen. A few years ago, our home phone number got swapped for a couple of days with someone else because a BT engineer messed up repairs at a switching station. It was a shock to ring my parents from uni only to get a random old lady answering. So perfectly possible for them to have messed up your line/account somehow.
