Why Choose VoIP?

The main benefits of Voice Over Internet Protocol’ (VoIP) are that it is an easy to use service that provides you with a way of making unlimited, reliable, low cost phone calls 24/7 to any phone line, anywhere in the world.

How Does it Work?

VoIP uses the Internet to transfer data from one telephone to another, rather than the standard analog cables and so is much cheaper to run and maintain, which reflects in the low cost packages on offer.  Once you have signed up to a package you will get a VoIP router delivered which you then attach to your touch tone phone and your computer.  This will allow you to make calls via the Internet, and when you dial in a number the information from your phone will be sent to the VoIP router, where it will be translated into digital data that will then be sent over the Internet connection, and this will then be translated back into a phone signal again when it reaches the destination number.  This means you can call any phone line in the world quickly and easily, and the connection will be clear and reliable regardless of where you are calling.

VoIP packages can offer you all of the services of a regular phone provider, but at much more competitive prices and you will get features such as:

  • Voicemail – this allows people to leave messages for you that you can access from any phone, and you can arrange to have email notifications sent to you to alert you of any new messages.
  • Call waiting – this will allow you to hold one call so that you can take another call that is coming in and is very useful for small businesses.
  • Caller ID – this is a useful feature that will display the name and number of the caller, which can allow you to screen incoming calls.
