...are ditching landlines once FTTP comes.

What are Plusnet customers here planning to do, or have done already?

The choices as I see them are to move to another provider who offers both BB and phone via the same service/ router.

Or, keep PN for BB and employ a VOIP service for phone access.

Or did as I have when moving to Plusnet from Talk Talk:
Ditch the landline altogether and use our mobiles (via WiFi calling if necessary).
NB that was FTTC (SOGEA to be more precise)... FTTP is coming soon.

Talk Talk and BT/EE offer the <Digital Voice> service on their modem-routers via a BT phone socket (and/or DECT connection). Plusnet would require another bit of kit to do the VOIP bit.

All will need some sort of battery backup when the mains power fails.

1. Accept the transfer to EE
2. VOIP
3. Forget landline and go 100% mobile

In a few years having a phone tied to a building rather than an individual will be as quaint as a red telephone box.
