    Hey,

    I'm currently in an office with 3 Irish landline numbers. We want to setup a UK number using VoIP, but Blueface insist that we join the Business plan which gives you another 2 Irish landlines at €35 a month. You then have to pay another €5 a month for the UK line.

    We dont need or want another 2 Irish numbers. All we want is one UK line that we can hook up into our PBX. Anyone have any suggestions who we could use?

    port an irish landline (or 2) over to blueface and drop the line rental . 2 analogue line rentals is €40 a month ex vat which would cover the cost nicely

    If you're going to answer the phone in Ireland, just get the VoIP provider to forward it to one of your existing numbers. It might cost you a cent or two a minute to do this, but you don't have to mess around with variable VoIP quality. As for who can do it, I don't know, but send off an e-mail to the likes of Broadtalk etc. You can obviously go for a UK provider as well.

    If there's anyone from Freespeech listening, that web site of yours is incomprehensible.

    if you're a software developer or tester you might understand it. "knowledge base" "tickets". I agree it's not very friendly for non-techies alright.

    Basically you sign up for an account, make a one time payment and you can have an 01 and a UK number. Beyond that I have no idea what the quality of the service is like.

    I'd say our sales dept. got confused with the talk of the 3 existing Irish landlines if you just want a single UK geo number you can get it with any of the Blue Face packages instead of the Irish geo number.
