when telus forces us to change internet from copper to fibre, does the phone HAVE to use the fibre?
yes it is a plug in the wall phone. others had problems with it. will all phone sockets work for the phone (but not internet) thanks all calling telus is a waste of time as you well know
Yes, if Telus is removing the copper in your neighbourhood and replacing it with fibre-delivered telecommunications, your phone service will be delivered over the fibre network. They will connect to your current telephone wires in your home, so you can use phones as normal.
there IS a cost to replacing the phone that has worked for years when the power is out.
Anon125 What cost the six phones i have all worked after the change to fibe. No need to replace. And they all work when power is out i have battery backup. Batts last about 7 hours.
our phone at present works indefinitely when the power is out.

Your phone, which “works indefinitely when the power is out” will continue to work when the power is out, if you request the battery backup.
7 hour backup is not the same as indefinitely.
do you know what keep drinking the coolaid means?
Anon125 The phone you have will work if you have a battery backup installed. If you have a phone plugged in base with remote handheld ones they will not work even with the backup battery no power to base unit
Glad you agree it is not NO COST to go to fibre.
just another telus lie
