Coming soon

Lodestar Voice is coming soon.

A standalone over-the-top SIP service that will run over an internet connection you arrange. Keep a familiar UK number, use an ordinary phone with a compatible adapter, and see the price before you call.

The service is in build and cannot be ordered yet. The wholesale agreements behind these prices have not been signed. Every price shown is planned pricing and may change before launch.

This is not broadband, a fixed landline replacement or an emergency-backup service. Lodestar will provide the SIP service, phone number and online call features. We will not provide backup power, backup internet, a mobile fallback or another way to call emergency services if the service is unavailable.

Planned SIP voice plans

Choose occasional paid calls or a monthly allowance. Incoming calls will be included on every plan, with no limit.

Every figure shown is a proposal. Final consumer prices will be displayed including VAT, together with any mandatory equipment, delivery or activation cost, before ordering opens.

Essential

Proposal only. Not yet a VAT-inclusive offer.

£1.50 per month
or £15.00 per year, paid upfront

  • One UK geographic phone number beginning 01 or 02
  • Incoming calls included, with no limit
  • Voicemail, caller display and a registered emergency address
  • Outgoing calls paid from purchased credit
  • PIN-protected Free Call Only mode, which does not block £0.00 calls because of the credit balance; all calls still require working power, internet, equipment and SIP service
  • Purchased credit will not expire while the line remains active
  • Up to three devices can ring together

The plan intended for most households

Everyday with 3,000 UK minutes each month

Proposal only. Not yet a VAT-inclusive offer.

£10.00 per month
or £108.00 per year, paid upfront

  • Everything included with Essential
  • Calls to UK 01, 02 and 03 numbers and standard UK mobiles included within the 3,000-minute monthly fair use limit
  • No 60-minute cut-off on an individual call
  • No connection fee for each call

Calls that will always cost £0.00

These calls will cost £0.00 on every plan, including Essential and when the credit balance is zero.

£0.00 describes the price, not guaranteed availability. Calls to 999 and 112 will not work through Lodestar Voice during a power cut, internet failure, equipment fault or Lodestar outage.

  • 999 and 112 for the emergency services
  • 111 for NHS urgent medical help
  • 101 for the police in a non-emergency
  • 105 for a power cut
  • Designated 116 services, including 116 123 and 116 000
  • 0800 and 0808 freephone numbers, which will cost £0.00
  • Other Lodestar users, with no charge for the call

Straightforward paid calls

On Essential, and outside an allowance, planned rates are 1p per minute for UK 01, 02 and 03 numbers and 2p per minute for standard UK mobiles. Calls will be billed per second, with a 2p minimum per call.

03 numbers will cost the same as 01 and 02 numbers and count in the same way.
