# Will Quickline Talk work during a power cut?

No - **Quickline Talk and Talk+ won’t work during a power cut**.

Both services need an internet connection and mains power. So if your home loses electricity, your internet and phone service will stop too.

You should keep a **fully charged mobile phone** nearby. Make sure it works indoors. That way, you can still call 999 in an emergency.

Quickline Talk and Talk+ are **optional extras** that sit on top of your broadband connection.
