Hi, 

 

I have an engineer coming out on 18/2/22 but have just received my parcels with router and TV box but there is no phone. I don't have a physical phone but do have a pre filtered socket, can I still have the broadband set up? 

 

Thanks

No worries. Hopefully your service will go live without any issues, do keep us posted either way.  🙂

Oh that's great then  I just didn't want an engineer to come out and nit be able to do the installation. 

I didn't know as I've only ever used mobile broadband for Internet.

Yep, so they will supply you with a router and a TV box, but not a phone handset. No provider does.

I have a BT NTE 5C MK 4 socket and the fibre 65 with TV package.

If you want to use your landline for phone calls you need to get your own handset.

 

EDIT: Oops, I see @Gliwmaeden2 beat me to it!

You don't need to actually use the landline for phone calls, @MBatchelor.

 

They wouldn't send a phone handset.

 

Can you check what mastersocket you have and the name of the package you ordered?
