Cader NetworksHome VoIP UK: why households choose Cader Networks
Shopping around for a home VoIP landline replacement? Here's how Cader Networks stacks up against two well-known UK providers, so you can see exactly what you get for your money — and why households switch to us. Available UK-wide, on any broadband connection.
How the plans stack up
All prices inc VAT. Every Cader Networks home VoIP line includes a free new UK geographic number. If you'd rather keep your existing number, there's a one-off £9.99 porting fee — that's the network's own charge for moving it, passed straight on at cost, no markup.
| Provider | Entry price | Higher tiers | Setup / connection fee | New number | Porting existing number | Own phone (BYOD) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cader Networks | £7.99/mo PAYG | £9.99/mo, 1,000 UK minutes | None | Free UK geographic number | £9.99 one-off | Yes — bring your own phone, or buy a Yealink handset from £49.99+VAT |
| Voipfone | £6/mo, 100 minutes | £9/mo (300 min), £14/mo (unlimited) | None | Included | Free | Yes |
| Plexatalk | £4/mo, 100 minutes | £6/mo (250 min), £10/mo (500 min), £12.50/mo (unlimited, 2,000-min fair use) | £15 on Micro/Basic tiers, free on Standard/Unlimited | Included | Free | Yes |
Our plans include a free UK geographic number and clear, published call rates as standard — no setup fees, ever. Prices checked September 2026 and change regularly.
Why households choose us
A real local team, not a call centre
You speak to the same Welsh-based team every time, by phone or email, during working hours — no scripts, no call queues. No contract tie-in — 30-day rolling, cancel any time. A free UK geographic number is included if you don't need to keep your old one, and a memorable number is available as an optional extra from £3/mo. We're also a working telecoms installer, not just a VoIP reseller — if you want an opinion on your broadband, WiFi or a wider setup, we can help with that too.
Straightforward pricing, no surprises
Two clear plans, both inc VAT, with everything outside the bundle covered on our published call rates page. The only fee beyond the monthly plan is a one-off £9.99 charge if you're porting an existing number in, and we say so upfront rather than burying it in small print. No surprise price rises, no retention-team phone maze if you ever want to leave.
Common questions when comparing home VoIP
Do I have to be a Cader Networks broadband customer to get home VoIP?
No. Home VoIP works over any broadband connection from any provider, anywhere in the UK.
Do other providers charge for number porting?
Voipfone and Plexatalk both offer free number porting. Cader Networks charges a one-off £9.99 porting fee, which covers the network charge for moving your number — there's no fee at all if you take a new number instead, and we'll set you up with a free UK geographic number.
Is Cader Networks the cheapest home VoIP provider in the UK?
Not always. Some providers undercut us on their lowest tiers, and we've listed them here rather than pretend otherwise. We compete on straightforward pricing, no hidden fees beyond a one-off porting charge, and a dedicated local team who answer the phone directly.
