Landline Switchover in Barnes
Barnes has a close community with many older residents, and the landline is still an important link for some households. Family members who live further away often book us to make sure a parent's phone and alarm will keep working. We take our time, explain the change in plain English and send the family a summary.
Problems we fix
- A letter from your phone provider about Digital Voice or digital landlines
- Not sure whether your phone or cordless handsets will still work
- A parent who relies on their landline or a personal alarm
- Worried the phone won't work in a power cut
- Only want a landline, not broadband
- The phone stopped working after the switchover
