The analogue phone network in the UK is being switched off and replaced with digital phone services by 2025. This changeover to digital, referred to as the "digital switchover", will affect every household. If you rely on devices connected to your landline, like amplified phones, textphones, or alarms, it's important to understand how this will impact you. Your phone company will contact you when it's time to transition your service. You may need to plug phones into your broadband router instead of the wall socket. Phone companies should provide support if you have accessibility needs, but contact them proactively if you have concerns. The switch aims to upgrade the aging phone infrastructure to newer digital networks.
