The solution, called Complete Voice and Internet, provides 8 to 60 ISDN-quality voice lines and up to 20Mbps of internet, delivered over the same connection. Companies can add or remove telephone channels on demand, enabling them to react quickly to changing business demands and also save money by not having to pay for lines that they no longer require.
Complete Voice and Internet connection is £699 for a one-year term, or £450 for a three-year term. Internet is £50 a month and telephone channels cost £10.99 each and include 2,000 minutes to UK landline and mobile numbers, which is less than half what BT charges per channel at £22.31.
Charles Bligh (pictured) said: “This is the latest example of how TalkTalk Business is making Britain’s businesses better off. Converged voice and data is set to really accelerate this year, especially amongst SMEs, that’s why we’re making it as easy as possible for firms to future proof their business and take the step into next generation services. Our Complete Voice and Internet offers flexibility, is scalable and provides real business advantage.“
Emma Burgon, head of engineering at William Hughes Ltd, a wire and spring manufacturer from Dorset, with another plant in Bulgaria participated in customer trials for Complete Voice and Internet after moving to new premises.
She said: “We used to have three separate companies providing services and it’s been easier dealing with just one. We’re enjoying considerable cost savings too.”
