We're upgrading your home phone — here's what you need to know.
Your number, your calls, your day-to-day experience: none of it changes. You’ll dial and answer exactly as you do now, with no new equipment and nothing to set up on your end.
The one important change is voicemail. As part of this upgrade, your voicemail system will be replaced, which means any messages currently saved on your phone will not carry over. If you have voicemails you’d like to keep, please take advantage of our Voice Preservation Service available at no additional charge.

FAQs
The Upgrade
What's changing?
We're moving your service to a new system behind the scenes. Your phone number and the way you make and answer calls stay exactly as they are. The one change to be aware of is your voicemail, covered below.
Will my phone number change?
No. Your number stays the same.
Do I need new equipment?
No. Your existing phone works as it does today. There's no installation, no technician visit, and nothing to plug in.
Is there anything I need to do to prepare?
Only one thing. If you have saved voicemails you want to keep, contact us before your upgrade so we can preserve them for you. Everything else is handled on our end.
Will my service go down during the upgrade?
Your phone goes offline briefly while your service switches over, typically one to two minutes. During that short window you won't be able to make or receive calls. Once it's done, your phone works as normal. There's nothing you need to do.
Does this cost extra?
No. The upgrade and the new features described above are included at no additional charge.
Will I need to learn anything new?
No. Calling works the same way it does today.
Your Voicemail
What's happening to my voicemail?
Your voicemail system is being replaced as part of this upgrade. Voicemail will keep working afterward, but any messages currently saved on your phone will not carry over.
What if I have voicemails I want to keep?
Contact our Customer Experience Team before your upgrade and we'll preserve them for you through our Voice Preservation Service, at no additional charge.
What happens if I don't do anything?
Your saved messages won't be available after the upgrade. If there are any you'd want to hear again, please reach out before your upgrade date.
