Digital phone line or no phone line

We recommend taking a digital phone line that plugs straight into your broadband to make calls. You can also choose not to order a phone line with this service. As part of the upgrade to the UK's digital phone lines, we discontinued the ability to purchase a traditional or public switched telephone network (PSTN) phone line from September 2023.

Fibre to the Cabinet (FTTC) broadband Technology

This means that we'll run a Fibre line from your exchange to your nearest cabinet. We then run broadband over the traditional copper wire from the cabinet to your home or business. This means that the further away from you are from your local cabinet, the slower your broadband speed is likely to be.
