If you’re one of BT’s 2 million ISDN customers, you have until 2025 to review your options and make the change (before the network is switched off).
As crazy as it might sound, for many businesses today, ISDN is still the best service they can get. According to Ofcom’s 2018 Communications Market Report, there were 33.1 million fixed landlines in the UK in 2017 (including ISDN), and approximately 6.4 million of those belonged to businesses. It’s imperative that BT can provide businesses with access to an alternative service long before the 2025 deadline.
If your current ISDN phone contract is up for renewal soon, now is the right time to start exploring the option of switching to VoIP and SIP technologies.
