Prices Include VAT - The UK's Cheapest Line Rental and Call ChargessLine connection costs When comparing telephone only prices, you may be told by other providers that there is no cost to transfer to their telephone service/s. However, BT Wholesale does make a charge to all providers for the work to transfer or install a line, which is why we make charge. The cost for installing the line charged by BT is the same for all providers. So, it's likely that, if they do offer to do this for free, they will include it as a hidden cost, and higher line rental, call charges, call connection charges, as well as tie you into a long contract so that they can recoup it. Nothing is free, it's always included!

Restarting a BT or MPF telephone line - £45.00 with VAT A stopped line is an existing phone socket that is present in a premises that is not able to make or receive calls, but is still connected to the national infrastructure via a Copper Cable. Before you agree to restart a stopped line, we strongly recommend you complete a physical test of the socket, and run the test below. If you have a telephone socket but no dial tone, please contact us, as not all stopped lines will work using this test. We can then run an address check in the Openreach database to check. Time to switch a stopped line back into service is normally between 24 hours and 3 working days. No engineer will need to come to the premises. a) Locate the telephone socket in the house. b) Connect a standard PSTN telephone handset into it. c) Listen for a dial tone. If the line is dead, then this is not the stopped line. d) If dial tone is present dial 17070, which is a BT test number. e) Listen, and a voice will read to you the phone number associated to the line. f) This should read back a telephone number, number; this may be a 'ghost' number. But as long as you have dial tone it should be fine to restart. Need help? Click here If you change your mind You can change your mind and cancel a service within the cooling-off period.
