Yeah, sorry RH, I wasn't suggesting replacing the other pull cord just yet, just suggesting possible reasons as to why the 2 way circuit is not working as it should.
Wire the old pull cord switch back in as suggested by TTC and see if the system switches correctly.
If it does, the problem must lie with your changes. If the problem is still apparent, there must be a break somewhere; either a faulty switch mechanism or a physical break in the conductors, at a terminal or along the conductor somewhere.
As your switches have been wired with only one three core cable at each position, there must be a junction box somewhere nearby where all the connections are made (or the connections could be made off in the ceiling rose).
Edited for clarity.
