Inter-connectivity between all phones for call transfers and more Inexpensive hardware and lower upfront costs Free, unlimited technical support and maintenance VOIP systems can be easily scaled up or down based on requirements

Based on the majority of our customers, we typically expect most people to save between 40% and 50% on calls, but especially if the bulk of calls are made to mobile numbers and international numbers.

Our VOIP telephone systems utilize an existing broadband connection at your office or home to make and receive calls. Bypassing BT’s traditional network, you will have access to lower rates for calls to landline numbers, mobile numbers, and international numbers. Similarly, because no physical phone line is taken up, our line rental or service charge costs are much lower than BT’s, starting from £5.00 per month (ex VAT). Please see our call rate sheet for example costs and charges.

There is no difference in call quality thanks to VOIP’s HD Call technology built right into the service. We use VOIP here at the alphaTALK office – please give us a call on freephone 0800 093 2193 to hear the quality for yourself. Additionally, calls on our VOIP platform are superior to Skype. Our VOIP calls sound identical to those provided by traditional analogue phone line from the likes of BT.
