What is happening?
BT has announced its intention to close the PSTN (Public Switched Telephone Network) by the end of 2025.
This will impact a wide range of communications products, especially those that use Wholesale Line Rental (WLR) services.
As part of the transition to next generation digital services, BT Openreach has ceased the sale of all WLR products, colloquially known as the 'switch-off'. This move, effective since September 2023, marks a pivotal step in the PSTN switch off as a result you may experience an impact sooner than you think, for example, if you plan to move in the next 18 months you may be unable to order like for like services to your new premises.
Full-fibre is a nationwide initiative to ensure the whole of Britain has access to fast, reliable and stable connectivity.
