Plusnet Fibre without line rental

Hi
Just been thinking about this and I'm not sure if I've made a mistake by ordering Vonage(VOIP) for an alternative to my current line rental with The Post Office. I was just comparing line rental charges to see if I could find anything cheaper and find Vonage amongst the results and ordered....
Now, I've gone to stop payments with The Post Office line rental and wondering if I will have problems with losing the fibre connection as I think Plusnet required a land line for the fibre broadband... I  may be wrong but wanted to check with anyone at Plusnet support if there will be problems?
Thanks for any input.

you likely will hit problems, you'll need to be paying line rental to someone.

Re: Plusnet Fibre without line rental

For clarification, that means a Plusnet phone line or any other supplier who offers a BT Wholesale based line.
