    Do your mobiles and network not have the WiFi calling option?

    We have zero mobile signal where we live, but with WiFi calling they work just like they’re connected to the network, even text messages with one time passcodes etc.

    The copper cable landlines will be obsolete by end of 2025 anyway. So the only way to keep a current landline number open will be via a digital phone connected to fibre broadband.

    Business numbers and home landlines will all be using WiFi calling in future.

    Vodaphone, our BB provider has just sent us a plug in between the router and phone to use Voip instead of the BT plug, Ive not bothered, only one person rings the house number these days and that can be rectified easily.

    Yes they do however for some reason when on WiFi calls both of our mobiles drop out after 20-30 seconds, it’s very strange and again something which they dont seem to be able to fix.
