Compare broadband deals at your address – most still come with a home phone line.
Search and compare deals from over 15 broadband providers, including
A bundle pairs your home internet with a landline on one bill from one provider. Most still include a phone line, but the line itself is changing. The old copper phone network is being retired, so home phones are moving to digital voice that runs over your broadband. You might still want a landline for reliable indoor calls in a weak-signal area, for an older relative who prefers a handset, or for an alarm or care line. Quotezone compares broadband deals from 15+ UK providers, so you can see what’s available at your postcode. Most still include a home phone line, and you’ll see the exact phone and call details when you click through to the provider.
What is a broadband and phone bundle?
It packages home internet and a landline into one deal. Bundling can be simpler to manage than buying the two separately.
One provider, one bill
Your internet and your home phone line come together from a single provider, paid monthly on one bill rather than two.
A line plus your internet
You get the broadband connection and a phone line you can make and take calls on, usually with the same router.
Calls are extra or included
Most bundles cover line and broadband; the calls you can make for free depend on the call plan you choose.
Who still wants a home phone line?
Mobiles have replaced the landline for many, but a home phone still earns its place in plenty of households.
Weak mobile signal
In rural areas or thick-walled homes where mobile coverage is patchy, a landline gives a steady way to make and take calls indoors.
Older relatives
Many people are simply more comfortable with a handset on the side than a mobile, and prefer keeping a familiar number.
Alarms and care lines
Some personal alarms, telecare pendants, monitored security systems and lift phones connect through a phone line. Check yours works on a digital line before switching (GOV.UK).
What calls are included, and what costs extra?
A ‘phone’ deal covers the line; the calls themselves depend on the call plan. Knowing the difference avoids a surprise on your first bill.
The line vs the calls
Bundles usually include the line rental and broadband. The calls you make are a separate call plan – some are free, some are charged per minute.
Call plans
Plans typically range from pay-as-you-go calls, to evening and weekend calls, to anytime UK calls. Pick the one that matches when you actually phone people.
Watch the extras
Calls to mobiles, 084/087 numbers and international calls usually cost more, even on an ‘anytime’ plan. Check the per-minute rates before you sign up.
Digital voice: the copper phone network is being switched off
If you buy broadband with a phone line today, the landline no longer runs on a separate copper wire. The old analogue phone network (the PSTN) is being retired and is due to be switched off in January 2027 (Openreach). Home phones are moving to digital voice, which runs over your broadband connection instead (GOV.UK).
In practice this is usually simple. If you already have broadband, the change can be as easy as plugging your phone into the broadband router instead of the wall socket. You keep your existing number (GOV.UK). Providers are migrating customers in stages and will tell you before your line moves.
One thing to know: a digital phone needs power and a working broadband connection, so it will not work in a power cut on its own. During an outage, providers must offer at least one way to reach emergency services for at least an hour, free for at-risk customers, such as a battery back-up unit (GOV.UK).
If anyone in your home relies on a telecare alarm or monitored equipment, tell your provider before you switch. Under industry commitments, no telecare user should be moved to a digital line until a compatible, working solution is confirmed to be in place (GOV.UK). It is reassuring, not alarming – but worth checking before you sign up.
What to look for in a bundle
A good bundle is the right speed, the right call plan and a clear total price – in that order. Compare the whole package, not just the monthly figure.
Speed for your home
Match the broadband speed to how many people stream, work and game at once – not just the headline figure. Providers quote the speed you’re likely to get at peak times (Ofcom).
The right call plan
Decide when and who you call, then pick the call plan with the provider when you sign up. An anytime plan is wasted if you rarely use the landline; pay-as-you-go suits light callers.
The true monthly cost
Check the monthly price, full contract cost, any setup fee and the in-contract price rise – most providers now state the rise as a set amount up front (Ofcom).
Connection type
A full-fibre line is faster and steadier than older part-fibre – see full fibre and fibre broadband to compare the options.
Is a bundle available near me?
A postcode check is the only reliable way to see which bundles and connection types reach your home.
Bundles are widely sold
Most major providers sell broadband with a phone line across much of the UK, on whatever connection type reaches your street.
Connection varies by street
Whether you get full fibre, part fibre or another type depends on the networks built where you live – coverage changes street by street.

Buy with the provider
Click through and complete your purchase with the provider. That starts the move under One Touch Switching, so they arrange the switch and close your old service.
Keep your number
You can usually keep your existing phone number when you switch, and your line moves to digital voice over your new broadband (GOV.UK).
A real-world example
Matching the call plan to how the household phones, and checking any alarm in advance, made the move straightforward.
The situation
A retired couple in a rural village had patchy mobile signal and used their landline daily, including a personal alarm for one of them.
The fix
A postcode check showed a full-fibre bundle with an anytime call plan. They flagged the alarm to the provider, who confirmed it would work on the digital line before the switch went ahead.

Broadband and phone FAQs
Do I still need a phone line with broadband?
Not always. Many homes run broadband without a landline. A home phone still helps with weak mobile signal indoors, an older relative who prefers a handset, or an alarm that uses the phone line. If you do want one, a bundle puts the line and your internet on a single bill.
What is digital voice, and is the landline being switched off?
The old copper phone network (the PSTN) is being retired and is due to be switched off in January 2027 (Openreach). Home phones are moving to digital voice, which runs over your broadband instead of a separate copper line. For most people the change is simple – you plug your phone into the broadband router and keep your number (GOV.UK).
What calls are included in a broadband and phone deal?
Usually the bundle includes the line and broadband, while the calls depend on the call plan you pick. Plans range from pay-as-you-go to evening, weekend or anytime UK calls. Calls to mobiles, 084/087 numbers and abroad normally cost extra, so check the per-minute rates before you sign up.
Will my home phone work in a power cut?
A digital phone needs power and a working broadband connection, so it will not work in a power cut on its own. During an outage, providers must offer at least one way to reach emergency services for at least an hour, free for at-risk customers, such as a battery back-up unit (GOV.UK). Most people are advised to keep a charged mobile as a backup.
Will my alarm or telecare device still work on a digital line?
Some personal alarms, telecare pendants and monitored systems connect through the phone line, so tell your provider before you switch. Under industry commitments, no telecare user should be moved to a digital line until a compatible, working solution is confirmed to be in place (GOV.UK).
Can I keep my phone number when I switch?
Yes, in most cases you can keep your existing phone number when you move to a new broadband and phone deal. Your line moves to digital voice over your new broadband connection (GOV.UK).
How much does a bundle cost?
It depends on the broadband speed, the call plan, the contract length and any offers. Check the monthly price, the full contract cost, any setup fee and the in-contract price rise – most providers now state the rise as a set amount up front (Ofcom). Quotezone shows these so you can compare the true cost, not just the headline figure.
How do I switch my bundle to a new provider?
Compare the broadband deals at your postcode on Quotezone, then click through to the provider to choose your bundle and call plan. Completing your purchase starts the move under One Touch Switching, so your new provider arranges the switch and closes your old service. A new line may need a short engineer visit.
