The digital switchover has been going on since the mid 2000s. This latest, the change to voice over internet for a couple of years. There's not any additional cost (if your provider is, you should change any price comparison website can help). What you'll find though is that landlines make no economic sense! How many unused free minutes do you have on your mobile contract? Don't pay for any landline bundle, just use your mobile/ WhatsApp call over wifi. Save yourself some money!

As far as TV goes - all the major channels streaming services are far better than linear TV - just watch what you want when you want. As for radio. For sure local commercial has gone and BBC local cut back, but again the internet can compensate. Try BBC sounds. And digital radio has 6Music, R4 Extra...

Not all change is bad unsettling maybe, but not so difficult. Come on! In HB we are innovators, early adoptors.
