loss of Landline
Can somebody explain what is going to happen when we go full fibre? From what I can work out, the cost for us pensioners is going to increase quite a lot/ At the moment I rely on our landline because we do not get a signal on the side of the village I live, so rely on it. When I try and use the wifi calling system, I can hear the person calling, but they cannot hear me. If the mobile is the only phone I will be able to use, it is going to wear out the phone quicker, so more charging and eventual battery replacement or new phone if the battery cannot be changed. A cheap battery will not last, so an original expensive battery will have to be fitted. Then it is a matter of trying to find a genuine battery and fitter, not a high street 'used phone shop'. I can already see the prices rising quickly from the quoted prices now. I, or we will be again paying more for a poor service. The other option I have seen is to take out another contract with a company supplying, VOIP phones. Yet mor cost. Can anyone tell me whether what I am presuming, will be the case?276Views0likes1CommentWiFi Calling stopped just as phone was connected
I have just had my phone number ported from my previous supplier. My previous supplier was 3 and I had WiFi calling. My number was ported via Smarty from £ and my WiFi calling has now stopped working. One of the reasons I need WiFi calling is because I live in an area that has very poor/non existent mobile phone signal. When I read Smarty used the 3 network and did WiFi calling, I changed. How come 3 support my phone, but Smarty, using 3, do not. I can connect to WiFi on my phone, but no matter what I turn on on my phone, I cannot use it.1KViews0likes0Comments
