If you have Sky Broadband you have Sky Talk as they are bundled together. Just connect a phone (Sky don't provide the actual device).

Do you currently subscribe to Sky Broadband and Talk (Talk is Sky's landline phone service)?

Do you have Sky Broadband? If you have Sky Broadband you have Sky Talk as they are bundled together. Just connect a phone (Sky don't provide the actual device), then dial 17070 from your landline and the automated message will tell you your number.

You've already got one. Dial 17070 on your landline and the recorded message will tell you what it is.

Just to add - depending on when you joined Sky broadband, you may need to plug your phone into the back of your broadband Hub, rather than the wall socket. If there's phone socket at the back of your Hub, try that first. Otherwise try the wall socket.

Alternatively you may find your phone number in the phone section of your online Sky account.

Thanks to all for you help

Perhaps be aware that if you haven't opted to add a Sky Talk element to your Sky Broadband subscription, the default PAYG option means actually making outbound calls at any time of day or night is unpleasantly expensive even though it's VoIP under the hood.
