Do I still need a phone line to access all the Sky services, as we now can use full fibre in our area.

Thank you

You need a phone line if you have Sky Broadband, if you don't plan to use it then to save you some money call Sky and ask them to put you on the Pay as you Talk package so if you make no calls then there would be no additional charge apart from line rental which you will already be paying for via the fibre cost..

Data over full fibre replaces anything running over copper cabling, including voice calls. The notion of a 'phone line' increasingly doesn't apply these days.

No. Providing you jave a fibre optic cable to your home, the fibre connection provides your phone service and you don't need any Sky device to be connected to the phone line.
