Do I need a landline for Fibre 35?

[Paul_Wilts]

Hi - I have tried and failed to find an answer to this question on the TalkTalk site and via the chatbot. I am on Fibre 35, which I'm happy with for the moment. I still have a landline which we don't use for outgoing calls and is mainly just a pain with scam calls etc. Can I get rid of it and still have working broadband? Thanks

If you don't use/need the landline phone, then the simple solution would be to just unplug it. Your broadband will still work.

Thanks - much appreciated

No, not it you are going to continue with Fibre to the Cabinet (copper to the house) as it's one and the same line to the house, @Paul_Wilts.

Only if full fibre (to the premises) is available, you can buy a data only package, but it's a new installation. It won't use your current set up from the Openreach master socket.

Details for installing full fibre:
