Landline Switchover in Richmond
Richmond's period houses and mansion flats often have phones in several rooms, along with alarm systems, lift lines or door entry systems that may use the phone line. In flats, it's worth checking with the managing agent whether shared systems are being upgraded. Inside your own home, we make sure the phones you rely on keep working after the switch.
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
What's included
- A check of every handset, extension and phone socket in the home
- Phones connected to the router and calls tested in and out
- A check of personal or telecare alarms, coordinated with the alarm provider
- A plan for power cuts, including asking your provider about a battery backup unit
- Help registering on your provider's Priority Services Register if it applies
- Nuisance call blocking set up where your provider offers it
- Simple written notes, and a summary for family if you booked for a parent

Landline Switchover Help in Richmond: FAQs
It can be, if it uses a phone line. Shared systems are the managing agent's responsibility, so ask them whether it's been checked. We'll take care of the phones inside your flat and can tell you what to ask the agent.
The old copper phone network is due to finish switching off by 31 January 2027, and providers are moving customers in stages before then. Your provider should write to you before your line is moved.
Usually not. Most phones keep working once they're plugged into the router or a digital phone adapter. Some older or unusual handsets need replacing, which we check on the visit.
