Services that require a fixed line phone line to work, such as monitored home alarms, medical alarms, faxes, the interactive features of SKY digital or PABXs may be incompatible with our calling service. Vodafone recommend checking with the provider of any existing fixed line dependant services.

Using your home phone

If power is not available then broadband, and any services which run over it including calling from your home phone (and calls to emergency services), may stop working unless there is battery backup at your place.
Once your broadband is connected you’ll need to plug your home phone directly into your Vodafone supplied modem instead of the wall phone jack. Non-Vodafone modems will not work.
Making phone calls – you’ll now need to dial the area code before dialling the phone number, eg 09, 07, 03 etc. There may be a delay of up to 10 secs before it starts ringing. You can reduce this by pressing * when you dial.
