My parents have home phone and broadband provided by Vodafone, over a copper phone line with VDSL. It's in my name, and I used to switch providers often to find the best deals but life has been busy over the last few years (kids) so I haven't got around to it until now
I'm paying currently £46/mo which includes unlimited anytime calls. I think I signed up in 2018, so it's well past the fixed contract period and I want to see if there is a cheaper deal.
The problem is that on every provider I've checked that was shown on comparison sites (Now, Sky, Shell, EE, Virgin) they say that they cannot provide me with any services. BT can provide me a service but it's £70/mo and I need to pay a £57 activation fee, so no point in switching.
The BT checker says FTTP is unavailable at my location, which I guess explains what I am seeing. Plusnet can offer me a broadband only service, but my parents still use their landline as the mobile service there isn't great. I don't need a copper phone line, I have no issues switching to a 'Digital Voice' line, but how do I find a provider that will offer that?
