IF YOU ARE CURRENTLY ON AN ADSL OR FTTC TARIFF

If you using one of these services, changing your tariff to a Data Only Connection will CEASE YOUR TELEPHONE LINE SERVICE.

If you are migrating from one of these tariffs and you wish to keep a telephone service you will require a VoIP service.

Freeola Voice services allow you to port your number to a digital telephone line, so you can continue to receive calls on your existing number.

If you are usure about whether or not this will affect you, please Contact Freeola Support, who will be happy to clarify for you.

This can be actioned quickly and easily from the Broadband & Line Rental > Broadband Details & Usage section of the managing MyFreeola account.

  • If you are migrating to an FTTP (full fibre) service and you don't already have an ONT on site, you will now need to select an Engineer Installation Appointment. This appointment is required to install the equipment and line necessary to provide this type of service to your premises.

    After providing a contact telephone number (preferably a mobile number) click Confirm Change Request to initiate your migration.

  • If your migration doesn't require an engineer visit, please read all the information on-screen and agree to the Terms of the migration before clicking Confirm Change Request.

If you are currently using a service that requires an active telephone line service (ADSL or FTTC) please ensure you read and understand the Information box on the final Confirmation page.

For either migration option you will be kept updated on the progress of the change via e-mail and through notifications within your MyFreeola Control Panel.

Important

If your existing tariff is using our legacy hosting offer you will also be offered the option to continue with this after your tariff change or switch to our £12 Money Back Voucher hosting offer.

When making this choice you will be provided information on which services you are currently making use of within your account, and how these would be affected by the change, allowing you to make an informed decision.

Should you require assistance in this decision, please contact Freeola Support for further guidance.
