VVX410/vvx411 call pickup randomly not working.

[Chris L]

Two of my users have random issues where their phones do not answer when picking up the handset. It seems to happen once, twice, a whole afternoon, then go away and come back again later, yet it happens at least once a day.

This is a on prem skype for business enviorment. I've switched out the phones from 410's to 411's with no luck. both people are having the problem when answering a team call. Clicking accept on the skype for business soft client, or clicking the button on the phone it self, the call then connects.

Current software on phone is
5.5.1.11526 

Current BTOE is

3.4.0

We do not have a polycom reseller as we had to fire our consultants that provided them. THough they are fairly new and should be under warranty.

Thanks!

Ouch... well thats lovely... not your fault of course, just yucky of the consultants.

I can only find one of those sku's (5150-49252-001) as something i can actually order and its from cdw, a single phone license. I am about to buy 15 of them but what do i do with them once they are purchased?

[Chris L]

All Purchased.

Now what?

Hello Chris,

Both units are out of warranty so please call Polycom support and open a PPI / Pay Per Incident ticket for this.

Well that doesnt make sense, the 411's havent even been on sale for a year have they, and we only purchased them in November... how could they be out of warranty? the 410 i kinda dont care about as i only ordered it last june as a single item to test it over the original cx series phones we purchased, then waited for the 411's to go on sale, and i took it out of service for other failures and replaced it with the aformentioned 411, though both had the problem. we have 14 other 411's as well.

Hello ChrisL

You are correct the VVX411 with the MAC 64167f01e34f was sold via WESTCON GROUP EUROPEAN OPERATIONS LTD back in 30/08/2016. Please contact them as they are your Tier 1 contact and can open a Ticket with Polycom support about this.

Apologize for the misunderstanding. I mixed your post up with another one.
