0800 BT Alternative

08Uk offer a great alternative to BT and the other major telecoms as 0800 and 0808 number providers. Through our tier one carrier relationships we are able to offer highly competitive rates on all our 08 number services with all the reliability, resilience, expertise and professional call management features that you might need at your fingertips whether you are a small business looking for a single 0800 number or are looking to procure high volumes of 0800 or 0808 numbers to provision your call centres or for marketing campaigns.

Robust and Resilient 0800 Numbers with 08UK

Perhaps the most important feature of a virtual 080 number service delivered through a tier 1 carrier is resilience; network failures and downtime are very rare indeed, something which can’t be said of 08 numbers that are carried through many of the non-major networks.

Ofcom determine which carriers are given tier 1 call quality status and we only work with a carefully selected handful of award winning, tier 1 carriers with advanced call platforms that are suitable to deliver across any physical communication set up.

Virtual 0800 numbers delivered through a tier one service can offer a robust disaster recovery solution as part of your call plan. Traditional business phone numbers attached to lines (such as ISDN circuits) are prone to faults (such as when there is cable damage or power failure). With virtual 0808 and 0800 numbers you get far more reliability. A virtual 0800 number call plan can be set up for you to automatically route the calls to another line, location or office in the event of such a disaster situation giving you continuity of service and peace of mind.

01 and 02 number alternatives to BT

If you want the benefits of professional call features but need to continue to use your existing landline numbers rather than 08 numbers, then we can also help. We can convert existing landline numbers into virtual numbers (0208 or 0161 numbers for example), offering the same tier 1 carrier benefits and call management features that you get with 08 business numbers such as 0800 and 0808. When you move from a direct carrier relationship to 08UK we can also offer some very competitive prices.

The Freephone 0800 UK number range was released many years ago now and there are no known regulatory changes pending which would affect 0800 numbers. Although Ofcom have stated that they will be looking at calls to 0800 from mobile networks and we expect these to become free at some point in the future.
