O que para de funcionar
Openreach says the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is permanently decommissioned on 31 January 2027 (as of 2 Nov 2026). Copper-line phone services that still rely on it risk sudden, permanent disruption, including payment terminals, lift emergency phones, fire and security alarm panels, door entry, and telemetry. From 31 January 2027 customers who have not moved may be automatically transferred to EVAc, a limited, temporary, last-resort phone service for essential calls; Openreach says it will keep linked broadband running where technically possible.
Dados em risco
No stored data is lost. The risk is losing phone service and any alarm, payment or lift line that runs over the old copper phone line. Openreach says about one million copper lines remain, 300,000 in business premises.
