Hi
I have received an email from TalkTalk saying that Callsafe will shortly be chargeable. As far as I am aware, as I am using VOIP (digital voice) and call safe is not avaiable, I am assuming this is an error and no additional charge will be made to my account.
Thanks

Thanks again for your reply I noticed that @Gliwmaeden2 has flagged the issue up perhaps you could escalate it ? I am much too busy at the moment to make long phone calls, it is a general issue with any luck it should be sorted at some point.

Hi
Thanks for your reply, we are going round in circles !! when I log into my account I am told callsafe isn't available as I am using digital voice, even though it is enabled and working on my account. (Please see below) others have reported the same, therefore there is no option on 'manage your package' to manage it. It seems to be a system problem.
once again thanks for your reply

Yes @davidl1 you are using VOIP. You should be able to use it as @Gliwmaeden2 has mentioned it available to TalkTalk customers, it does not state that you are unable to use it if you have full fibre.

@davidl1 callsafe is active on your account.

Hi @davidl1 I will check your account and confirm if you have callsafe.

It is very confusing, @davidl1, particularly as some Talktalk published advice suggests that Callsafe is available to ALL customers!
This is a recent article:
https://help-centre.talktalk.co.uk/Telephone/Telephone_security/How_do_I_manage_nuisance_calls
So we need clarification on this and it is being flagged up.

It all seems confusing, i have dialed 1472 on my landline callsafe does seem to be active, even though i am on Voip, its all very conflicting ! TalkTalk say callsafe is not available on Voip, also it is no longer suported, now we are told its £1 a month to support it ! I am confused, sure I am not alone !!

It isn't with VoIP services. But if you do not proactively cancel it now you may nevertheless still be charged going forwards, so will have to untangle it at a later date.

Hi Thanks for that, yes i have had callsafe on a previous package, hopefully TalkTalk staff will pick my question up from here, I was under the impression callsafe was not avaiable on new packages ?
Thanks

I am on Full Fibre and have neither a red banner as you describe, nor have I received an email. Have you ever had CallSafe active on a previous package? To be on the safe side, personally I would contact customer services directly to check and remove if necessary.
