Spectrum Voice: Plans, Prices, and More
Use our Spectrum Voice recommendations to get the landline phone service, and stay connected to friends or family.
Between smartphones and video calling services, it’s understandable if you forgot landline phone service was still a thing. But that’s precisely where Spectrum Voice comes into play.
Spectrum’s no-contract home phone landline service is available to Spectrum Internet® and TV customers. It offers excellent domestic and international coverage, which is handy if you need an affordable option for overseas phone calls. But the lack of a Spectrum Voice standalone package means you’ll have to jump through more hoops than expected to sign up.
Keep reading as we highlight the ins and outs of Spectrum Voice—including cost and features.
Spectrum Voice plans and bundles
Spectrum Voice isn’t available as a standalone package, so you’ll have to bundle with Spectrum Internet or Spectrum TV packages to get your landline phone set up.
Combining Spectrum telephone service with an internet or TV bundle means you won’t have to worry about paying multiple bills to different providers. But Spectrum’s bundle restriction can be a hassle if your biggest priority is home phone service.
Although Spectrum Voice’s $19.99-per-month rate when bundled is among the lowest compared to other providers, the cheapest Spectrum Voice bundle (Spectrum Internet + Voice) still costs $59.98 per month for the first year.
Spectrum’s bundle rule also makes it difficult to buy Spectrum Voice unless you’re also looking for TV or internet service or are almost done with your current provider contract.

Spectrum Voice equipment
Your Spectrum Voice subscription includes a phone modem that connects Spectrum’s phone network to your home. Depending on your Spectrum bundle, you might get a combo phone and internet modem that will support both Spectrum services.
You won’t need to install any additional hardware, and the modem is included with your Spectrum Voice fee.
Is Spectrum Voice worth it?
Even though Spectrum Voice costs $19.99 by itself when bundled, Spectrum’s mandatory bundle requirements mean you’ll have to add TV or internet service—the least you’ll pay is $59.98 per month.
But if you’re already looking for internet or TV service and need an affordable way to call overseas family or friends, Spectrum Voice’s unlimited coverage across North America, low international rates, and features like caller ID and readable voicemails could make the service a strong fit for your house.
