New to sky talk - I’d compatible wi Fi cordless phone

Just moved from but to sky broadband with sky talk. Told by sales advisor phones will work. It transpires my but phone won't work and I'm struggling to find one that will work. I'm not very technical so could anybody recommend one that does. (Ie cordless wi fi link to router to make and receive call over the internet. ) Really appreciate any help.

@Grsu1  You can purchase any standard corded or dect phones from most electrical retailers on the high street or online.  These plug in to the back of your Sky Hubs Telephone port.

 

BT Wifi phones only work with a BT smart hub.

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

A BT phone designed to work with their Digital Voice service won't work with Sky - it's proprietary to BT.

 

A standard DECT cordless phone, consisting of a base station which plugs into your broadband Hub, and a phone handset (or multiple handsets) that connects wirelessly to the base station will be fine. 

 

I've personally always used Panasonic DECT cordless phones which work well, but other brands should work just as well.
