Broadband Fibre but don’t want telephone line?

Hi,

@Stetraynor15  Unless you have full fibre optic you need the copper line otherwise you wouldn't get broadband.

 

 

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

As @GD1 indicates, a data bearer cable (either copper or optical) is required for Sky to deliver broadband to your address.  Increasingly the concept of a 'phone line' is becoming obsolete: any new broadband service is provisioned with a digital voice call facility running through the ISP router, typically on a PAYG basis unless upgraded to inclusive calls at the users choice.

 

To have no cable you'd need cellular, wireless or satellite internet, and Sky as an ISP does not offer those connection types.
