How Our Call Answering Service Works
Tell us about your business
The more you can tell us about your business, the better a telephone answering service we can provide.
How you would like your calls answered and how would you like each one handled?
This can range from what details you would like us to collect, if we are to transfer some or all calls or even access your online diary.
Send your calls to us
We will provide you with an unique divert number, this is how our systems identify calls for your company and our operators can answer accordingly.
You are always in control of what calls we answer, whether that’s all calls, just when your lines are busy or if the call is unanswered at your end.
Take a message, transfer a call, make a booking?
You don’t need to tell us when you are planning to use the service, our operators are always ready to answer your calls in a friendly and professional manner, with your own company greeting and following your instructions.
Meanwhile, you can relax away from interruptions and focus on your work.

Clear and transparent pricing
As well as our first-class customer service, what sets us apart is our clear and transparent pricing with tariffs for our classic telephone answering service starting from just £14.99 per month.
While other services charge for every call or for every second that a call lasts, our unique approach means that you don’t pay for wrong numbers, sales calls or the many other nuisance calls that plague many businesses.

FAQs about our Call Answering Services
How are you able to receive and answer my business calls?
For most it will mean simply typing in a short code into the handset to turn the call divert function on. We’ve written a small article on how to divert calls that provides codes for the UK’s most popular telephony providers.
How are your operators able to identify which calls are for my business?
Each client is given their own telephone number which they can either divert their calls to or give out to their callers direct. Calls coming through on this unique line are recognised by our systems and operators answer and handle the call as per the client’s instructions.
I don't need you to answer all my calls, can you answer only when I'm busy or unavailable?
By using the call divert method it means that you are always in control of when calls are coming through to us, whether that’s when you’re on your lunch, when your line is engaged or maybe when you just want some guaranteed peace and quiet to get on with your work.
Can I outsource our switchboard to you so that calls are transferred to me or another department?
Yes, many businesses already use our service as their remote receptionist.
Our operators follow your instructions on what calls should be transferred and to where, if the transfer destination is unavailable (or you decide not to take the call) then we can take a message and email/txt you the details.
Can I put the telephone number you give me on our website?
Absolutely but you might want to think about using one of our smart numbers which, when using our advanced telephony platform, can be programmed in a huge variety of ways.
For example, your number could go through to your office on certain days and be answered by us on other days, ring on 5 of your numbers simultaneously for 20 seconds then, if still not answered, come through to one of your telephone answering service operators.
We can even set up a menu selection so that a caller dials “1” for sales, “2” for accounts and so on when prompted.
Do I need to use your telephone answering service if I only need a Smart Number?
Our smart numbers are a great way of organising your call routing and can be used as a stand alone product if you do not require our answering service. UK numbers including 0800, 0808, 033 and all local area codes (for example 0208, 0131, 0141 etc) are available.
