Connecting my landline handset to my full fibre hub

I have just upgraded to SKY FULL FIBRE and the Engineer connected my previous landline handset into the back of the HUB for internet telephone calls. My question is are these now free of charge and when previoulsy connected to the landline socket I was paying for landline calls?

Re: Connecting my landline handset to my full fibre hub

So up until upgrading to full fibre this week, my landline (with SkY) was on a pay as you use basis - no calls free of charge. Now handset has plugged into the back of the Router for Internet calls i am unclear if these are free of charge or still on a pay per call basis?

 

Thanks

The default tariff is pay as you talk where the price per minute is more than the other tariffs. This remains the same for full fibre internet calls

 

Choose your country below (uk or ireland) to see the tariffs

No: unless you've opted to add Sky Talk Anytime Extra then the default price per minute is unpleasantly high.

 

and when previoulsy connected to the landline socket I was paying for landline calls?

 

As above.  Check your Sky bills: if it's the default Sky Talk Pay as you Talk then it's around a 26ppm billing.
