One deadline worth noting: BT will complete the PSTN copper switch-off in January 2027, retiring the old analogue phone network nationwide. If you or anyone in your household still relies on a copper landline, including for phone calls or older broadband services, now is the time to move to a full fibre or digital voice service before that deadline.
