Cader Networks vs Voipfone vs Plexatalk
Voipfone and Plexatalk are established UK home VoIP providers, and on raw entry price they can be cheaper. Cader is not always the lowest price. What Cader offers that neither of the others can is a local Welsh team, same-day call-outs in mid and west Wales, and an engineer who knows your setup by name. If you are in rural Wales and you want a phone that works and a person to call when it does not, that is where we win.

Choose Cader if...
You are in mid or west Wales and want a local person to answer the phone who knows your name. You want someone who can come out if something needs physical attention. You value Welsh-speaking service. You want a handset included in your monthly plan rather than buying one separately.
Other providers may suit you if...
Price is your only consideration and you are comfortable managing everything online, including any technical problems. Voipfone and Plexatalk both offer solid entry-level plans and free number porting, and are worth considering if you are outside Wales or happy with self-service support.
Not sure which suits you?

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 do not need to keep your old one, and a memorable number is available as an optional extra from £3/mo. We are 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
All prices are inc VAT, with everything outside the bundle covered on our published call rates page. Number porting is £15 per number, capped at £75 per request, and we say so upfront rather than burying it in small print. No surprise price rises, no retention-team 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 £15 per number ported, capped at £75 per request. A new standard number is £2/month if you don't need to keep your existing one.
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.
