Telephone line only or the Elderly
Copper telephone line quotes will only be provided if your local telephone exchange is not able to get the new digital service/s to your home. If you are not able to get the new digital service/s at your home you won't be impacted and we will still be able to install a new line, restart a line and transfer a copper line. If the new Digital service is available to your address we will provide you with a quote for this service.
All providers are under huge pressure not to install any more copper lines. However in extremely special circumstances, mainly medical equipment (Care Alarms are not classed as medical equipment) up to the 1st of September 2023 we will  assess on a case-by-case basis. However, if it's a Care Home, Sheltered accommodation or Warden Assisted we are unable to install any copper based voice service regardless of circumstances. Also if your exchange is already on a "Stop Sell” and there are some 600 plus this will also not be possible.

Consumer Price Index Rate Increase
​As with all providers if you sign up to a new contract or renew your contract for a telephone service (including call charges, features, add-ons, broadband, mobile and VoIP plans) the monthly price will increase each year from April 2023. That increase is based on the Consumer Price Index Rate of inflation which is published in January each year plus 3.9%
Fault Care Levels and response times (Please take time to read)
Our voice service platforms have a 99% uptime. But the first thing we recommend is to reboot the router, as they can lock up from time to time (Never do a Factory reset on the router as this will wipe all settings). We can also run test calls through your account to check the service is fully online and routing calls correctly. 
 
Simple Telecoms customers only - First and foremost, If you have a chronic long-term illness or disability, we would strongly recommend moving to a higher fault repair level if you need a faster response time. It is the end user’s responsibility to make sure they have an adequate care level in place that will offer coverage for faults outside normal working hours and public holidays, should they fill this is needed. Regardless of the fault level on the line a priority fault application cannot be made outside working hours, weekends, or public holidays. Care Level is the term Openreach uses to define their expected response times in the event you report a fault on your broadband (which is the underlined service for your telephone services). A response does not always mean that the fault will be fixed. For example, if there is a storm and a pole or line is physically damaged the fault may take longer to rectify. The response is just an initial assessment of the problem by the Openreach engineer and, where possible, their estimate of when it will be sorted. Obviously, if it can be fixed at this initial assessment, it will be. A change of Broadband Care Level takes 5 working days to complete.
