[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 9126982, member: 718"] If you have a good mobile signal then it sounds like you could do without a land line altogether and that includes fibre and broadband. Use a speadchecker app on your mobile and if it’s above 100mbps it should be more than good enough for what you need. The faster the better though. Then use the money saved to upgrade your SIM to 10GB or more per month of data and use your phone as a wi-fi hotspot and pair with your laptop. You now have everything you need. If you watch Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and YouTube quite a lot on your smart television or your laptop or tablet, or your mobile signal is poor, then getting fibre to the premises may be a better option. It will cost more but high speeds and VOIP that replaces ordinary phones may be worth it. Apparently BT are intending to switch off all copper lines within two years so your old type phones won’t work with fibre anyway. The disadvantage of VOIP phones through fibre is that your phones will not work during a power cut. You will have to rely on mobile phones in that case. [/QUOTE]
