Getting a BT home phone service

The UK’s ageing and unreliable copper landline network is being retired.
When BT contacts you, take action to avoid disruption to your home phone or broadband services

Further information and support are available on our Connected Together website, or by calling 0330 1234 150.

Ordering a BT Home phone service

BT Digital Voice is available with our home broadband and TV packages, as well as our calling plans.

When you place your order, we’ll need the phone number or postcode of the property where you want the new line. We use this information to determine whether there is an existing BT line we can activate or if you will need a new line.

Explore our Home Phone deals.

We don't provide a handset with your home phone order, but we have a wide range of phones available for purchase online.

Home Phone with Broadband

BT Digital Voice is available with our home broadband and TV packages, as well as our calling plans.

Keeping your phone number

If your telephone service is with another company (for example, a cable provider), we can usually transfer your number to BT. We’ll confirm during your order if this isn’t possible.

All you need to do is tell us:

  • the company you're using
  • the telephone number you want to keep

Place an order for BT Home Phone.

Connection charges may apply.

Home phone without broadband

BT Home Phone standard is available where you can't get fibre broadband and is ideal if all you need is a phone line.

If you want to place an order for this you'll need to call us.

Connection times

We may be able to reactivate the line remotely but in some instances we may need an engineer to connect you.
