[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 554251, member: 23472"] Not sure if you are being serious or not? That started a couple of years ago. The cable companies (Virgin etc) started it years ago, and BT followed suit recently. I can't afford "full fibre" (Where you get a fibre optic cable coming into your house) so I have fibre to cabinet. (Big green box on the footpath down the road from here) from there we have a copper cable to the house. I watched a subcontractor organising it at the pole over the road. Being curious and them being there for several days, I went over and asked, he showed me what they were doing, and about 2 weeks later BT sent a letter offering full fibre (Just as he said they would) but alas not for me, and yes the land line phones in the house no longer work* but the internet does (Obviously since I am here) so yes, anyone that only ever had just a phone (Like my late mother) will have their service cut off, like it or not. * If you want a handset to work you plug it into your router into the green hidden socket. But like most folk, we have been using mobiles at home for years. [/QUOTE]
