Stop the planned phasing out of landline phones in the UK.
To stop the phasing out of landlines. Many still prefer this type of phone and do not want to be bullied into accepting technology that they do not need or want.
To halt the phasing out of landlines. To keep this service in place. Freedom of choice.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or House of Commons is responsible for.
The Government sets minimum service standards for access to telecommunications, but decisions about the technology used to meet these standards (including replacing the Publicly Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to internet-based phone services are a matter for individual telecommunication providers, not the Government or House of Commons.
As a result it is not possible for the Government or House of Commons to take the action you have requested.
