CCB residential Broadband Customer who wants to add a fixed line, but not bundle any calls - With this options we provide the Telephone Line/Number for free, you only pay for the calls you use and any hardware we provide. (eg. ATA device to convert your standard Analogue phone to a VoIP Phone will cost Euro 85)
