As of 2025 the UK will be shutting off the old analogue Public Switched Telephone Network (PTSN) to a fully digital network. This means regardless of if you are an individual or a business you will no longer be able to use this old network connection- in fact nobody has been able to purchase this old connection since before 2020.
So, what will happen?
Well by 2025 every phone line will be completely digital routing calls over IP (Internet Protocol) rather than traditional PSTN.
Why does this matter?
Millions of people and businesses in the UK still rely on PTSN for their connectivity, which for the time being won’t be detrimental but come 2025 will wreak havoc with anybody who isn’t running on IP- Imagine trying to run a business without phones and internet! Here at Comsense, we want to help you get ahead of the game make the switch as soon as possible. Still not convinced it’s a good idea? Let us bust some myths for you…
The quality of calls made over the internet aren’t as good as made over the normal phone line.
They’re actually better! When the technology was new this may not have been the case. Now, with the massive advances in network connectivity you can expect beautifully clear audio, no echoes and no delays.
It’s too much work moving from my old system.
At Comsense we make this process as easy as possible. We tailor solutions to your needs, whether you have separate voice and data networks, run 1000 connections or are just dissatisfied with your current level of service, we can help!
With our network of trusted partners and years of experience, we can transition you to an IP system in no time, we also offer plenty of value added services like Mobile Device Management, Voice Recording and usage monitoring.
I will lose my current number and people won’t know how to reach me.
This is incorrect, you’ll be able to keep your old number, even if you switch network provider.
If you would like new numbers, number in different area codes or international destinations, are all services we can provide. Get in touch today to find out more!
IP sounds expensive.
The complete opposite actually! With IP you’re paying for a service, there’s no installation costs, no maintenance costs, oh and the call rate is £0.
We also operate a highly efficient business model. How does this impact your business you ask? Simply it will save you money, we don’t believe in charging you over the odds, so not only will you be getting the best service but you’ll also be getting the best value.
Digital phone systems sound restrictive, surely you can’t do as much?
A cloud-based system can do everything your on-site phone system can do, whether that be call forwarding, diversion or hunt groups. You can also use your business number outside of the office, so you’ll never miss those important customer calls! Plus most solutions provide internal chat functions and video conferencing included in their packages.
