With BT for landline (work) and broadband contract ends October. Only need broadband Options?

ClaraP

Been with BT business for many years and have a landline never use however I do need broadband for my work.  Can anyone advise me of my options?
The contract expires October with BT Business

Landline is what the broadband travels down and you pay line rental for  this data line .

Options as in what ??

One option is to renegotiate with BT or look at other business suppliers .

Or look at using mobile network , depending upon how much data you use .

If you have fibre, there is SOGEA, but as pointed out by JJ_Egan, it won't be much cheaper than paying for line rental, phone service and broadband bundle.

I could be wrong, but I don't think BT Retail or Business offer SOGEA products yet.

fwiw, Virgin can offer cable broadband without a phone service if it is available in your area.  If you require a static IP address(es), only Virgin Business division can offer them but be warned there are issues when using static IP addresses because they use GRE tunnelling with their Hitron hubs.  (Note that Virgin's residential broadband service should not be used for business - specifically the service levels are different for residential and business customers)

WISP is wireless (radio), not satellite. Primarily designed for rural areas where broadband coverage was poor

We have Virgin Media Business broad band and the land line is optional extra.

Which is why I put the 'marks' around 'satellite' 😁
