Phone Line dead...I think...

Since lunchtime, something strange has been happening with my landline phone. When people call, they can hear the rings as normal while I hear nothing (the caller goes to voicemail). My phone handset is displaying a "check phone line" message and there is no dialling tone at all.
My internet service is working perfectly at the same time.
I've tried another phone and phone cable, still nothing. A neighbour connected to the same local cabinet has a normally working service.
Is there any obvious explanation or something else I can test? Thanks in advance.
