How to add a third land line in my home?

Hello,

I will be working from home as a customer service/call center representative. Many companies require at home employees to have a landline phone. My family runs a business out of our home and therefore they need both existing lines. Therefore, we would need to add a third line separate from theirs. How would this be done and about how much would it cost? Only serious answers please. Thank you in advance.

  • If you can add the new line to your family's existing business account, then I would guess at around $25/month for an additional line. If you need it to be under a separate name, then whatever the going rate is for a business landline...maybe $40, $50, $60 /month depending on where you live and what features you need.

    Just call the local phone company and I'm sure they'll be happy to explain it to you.

    Do you have cable TV? If your two existing phone lines are traditional copper land lines, you might add a phone line from the cable company.

    If you are intending working from home for a business it is down to them to order it,most big companies specify bt(if you are in uk),therefore cost doesn't really matter to you.

    Consider using VOIP. Vonage and Magic Jack are the only ones I am aware of but I know there are others. Vonage is around $28/month. Magic Jack is cheaper. I have attached a link to some reviews of companies.

    Akron, OH ... AT&T (sorry) ... call for a line, they will drop the line to the house. They may actually connect one jack to the NID.
