Resource Utilities.
Its the one recomended by Mr Saunders and the fast track crowd.

I have found them to be the cheapest as well.

Hi Ian

Dont know what other guys Pay but I have Six Freephone Numbers it cost me noting to set them up.

I pay no monthly fee.

No Contract    ;D

All numbers are then free for life and then all I pay is 5p per minute on the call

I think that is good what does the forum think?  :-\

Is there better?

Regards

Gavin

Hi Ian

Yes still here, busy though just lately what with the cleaning and also decided to relaunch my other business so have been busy setting that up and getting in touch with old contacts.

Freephone numbers.

I wouldnt say it increases your business as a stand alone, but I have my freephone number on my LEAFLETS ONLY but also include my landline number.

Have tried freephone number only in ads and it bombed. Reason being people like to know where you are and cannot tell your location from a freephone number.

Got the number here for Resource utilities.

0870 877 0000

I think if you are on or thinking of doing fast track you get preferential rates if you mention it.

From what i remember it was free set up (i think) and then calls 4.5p per minute. Minimum spend per month £1 per number via direct debit.

Easy to set up.

Thanks

Mark

Hi all,

On similar lines (no pun intended),  how many of you divert calls to your mobile when you are out?  What's the best (and cheapest) way of setting it up?

Any drawbacks/pitfalls?

Regards.
