We can install new telephone lines and services. We will arrange and manage the whole installation for you. A new telephone line installation is now only £39.95. When the new phone line has been installed we will then invoice you for your chosen call plan for the first partial month plus the next whole calendar month, thereafter you will be invoiced monthly. Your monthly phone bill is usually generated on the 7th of each month.
To order your new phone line simply click the "check availability" button on any page then complete the telephone order form. This offer is subject to an 18 month Minimum Period, please see terms and conditions for full details.
Our provisioning team will check if there is a stopped line at the property and if so they will get that restarted immediately and add the broadband service (if applicable) which will usually start 7 to 10 days later. The charge for restarting a stopped line is the same charge as a new line installation (£39.95) so you won't have any additional charges but it will mean you won't have to wait for the new line appointment as currently there is a 6 to 8 week wait during the COVID-19 crisis.
Transfers of live lines continue as normal (14 to 17 days).
Firstly, you need to decide which call plan or broadband and free calls plan is required when we install your new phone line. To help you choose a line rental and free calls deal click here and for the "best value in the UK" unlimited broadband from only £18.95 click here.

We may install your new phone line on Local Loop Unbundled (LLU) if it is available at your exchange. Being on LLU will enable us to add broadband services for you, usually within an hour or so of your request. If you are considering adding another broadband providers service to the new phone line that we are installing for you please let our us know and we'll ensure that your new phone line remains on the BT Wholesale network rather than LLU to facilitate this. *Source of BT prices www.BT.com 01/04/2020 our normal new phone line installation price is £118.80.
