Introducing YouPhone - the future of landlines! Keep the comfort of your home phone but bring it bang up to date.
Get ahead of the big copper switch-off
The UK’s telephone network is going digital in the biggest change since the retirement of analogue TV in 2012.
This change will affect everyone who has a landline they’d like to keep, although no-one is going to get cut-off without fair warning from their service provider!
Get ahead of the change with VoIP
It could be a worry to think of life without your current landline, especially when it’s your lifeline, but this is the fast-approaching reality as Openreach are set to switch off their copper landline services by 2027.
To keep a home phone post switch-off, you’ll need to move to a digital service that uses a fibre broadband connection to make and take calls over the internet – this is known as VoIP – Voice over Internet Protocol and Digital Voice.
Clearer calls and cost savings
Phone calls over the internet are much clearer, with less interference, and are generally cheaper to make. Our YouPhone add-on starts from just £3 a month for free, unlimited calls to UK landlines on evenings and weekends.
How does it work?
A VoIP service converts your voice into a digital signal (rather than analog via copper phone lines) that can be sent between devices connected to the internet. Voice and video services like Skype, FaceTime, and WhatsApp already use similar technology.
Most cordless digital phones are already compatible with VoIP, and they connect to the internet through your router, or new digital phone port – neat right?
Make and take calls with YouFibre broadband
You can get ready for the inevitable by switching your broadband to a full fibre service with a VoIP phone add on just like ours. YouPhone can be added to any of our broadband packages to keep the comfort of your home phone. Bonus: you can bring your current landline number with you!
You’ll get yourself ahead of the switch-off and be able to say ‘bye bye’ to your old phone line before you’re forced to!
