One of the biggest misconceptions around the PSTN switch-off is that it only affects desk phones. 📞
In reality, many businesses still have analogue dependencies quietly sitting in the background.

Things like:
• alarm lines
• lift emergency phones
• door entry systems
• PDQ terminals
• fax lines
• broadband failover
• care systems

The challenge is that most of these services continue working perfectly… until suddenly they don’t.

❌ That is why the real question is not:
“Have we upgraded our phone system?”

✅ It is:
“What in our business still relies on analogue connectivity?”

There is a huge difference between the two.

At RPS, we are helping businesses identify hidden dependencies before they become operational problems closer to January 2027.

BT has taken the message about the PSTN Switch-Off mainstream, warning the public not to delay. ⏰

Here's why businesses need to pay attention:

The UK is in the final phase of one of the biggest infrastructure changes the telecoms sector has seen in decades - and BT has taken the message mainstream.

28/05/2026

For years, the PSTN switch-off has largely been a telecoms industry conversation.

Now BT has launched a national “Don’t Put Off the Switch” campaign aimed at the wider public.

That matters.

Because it signals we are no longer in the awareness phase.

We are in the action phase.

The businesses that leave this until the final months risk:
• rushed migrations
• limited engineering availability
• operational disruption
• discovering hidden analogue dependencies too late

The biggest danger is not that businesses are refusing to act.

It is that many are postponing because everything still appears to work today.

That is exactly the behaviour the industry is now warning against.

If your business has not reviewed what still relies on analogue lines ahead of January 2027, now is the time to start.

Telecoms fraud is no longer something happening at the edges of the network. It is becoming a coordinated, multi-channel risk affecting organisations of every size.

And the expectations of communications providers are changing.
