Don’t worry, your landline is here to stay. Your phone number won’t change, and most handsets work with the new system.
For most customers, the move to Digital Voice, BT’s new home phone service is as simple as plugging your phone into a router instead of the socket on the wall.
Supporting customers every step of the way
If you need additional support, please contact your phone company. BT customers can call 0330 1234 150 for support.
If you use a healthcare alarm or medical pendant which allows you to press for help in an emergency, or a burglar alarm, inform your phone company and check with your equipment provider about any needed upgrades before the switch.
If you don’t have broadband, BT will offer a dedicated landline service.
