Skype seriously annoyed a lot of people when they gave less than a month to have their London SkypeIn phone numbers - many their main business number - changed by 20 December.
Being with VoIPFone is a total contrast to the service that we had from Skype. The calls are crystal clear and are a joy to talk on.
We take your Safety seriously. All Voipfone customers can call emergency services immediately on sign-up.
Not every VoIP provider gives you access to emergency services it's safer to use one that does.

Bob Emmerson of Von Magazine has been putting our Virtual PBX to the test and has called it a "A Virtual PBX that Does Virtually Everything" and guess what he's right
Bob goes on to say Forget Skype and Vonage, even though the VoIP calls are free, and think PBX extensions – virtual extensions.
the result is an impressive portfolio.
The capital has become even more attractive to global businesses thanks to low-cost internet telephony
Pete Warren and Michael Streeter of the Guardian go on to say It already ranks as one of the most desirable cities on the planet to do business. But London, it seems, is set to get even bigger. In recent months.
Voipfone Call Me Back™ is a clever way of getting your customers to call you, perhaps as a way of driving sales from your web site or as part of a your customer support service.
The calls are free to your customers and very low cost to you. The button is free of charge, just help yourself to the code. You only pay for the calls that are made when the button is used.
Now, to make it even easier to use Voipfone, we have introduced a range of Plug & Go Hardware Products that are guaranteed to work with the Voipfone network 'straight out of the box'.
All our telephones and adapters are pre-configured with our optimum settings and your user details. And, unlike some service providers who lock their hardware, you can change them if you wish.
We have just introduced Call Conferencing to our
widening range of self service VoIP products
Invited conference members call in for free from the Voipfone network or from any telephone

Voipfone is a founder member of ITSPA which exists
to encourage the development of a vigorous and competitive industry
in providing voice telephony services using IP and other internet
technologies.
ITSPA sets and monitors basic customer related standards for
its members in order to ensure that customers can be confident
that they will be provided with high standards of service and
customer care.
The ITSPA Code of Practice is designed to help customers by ensuring
that they receive suitable information in advance of agreeing
to buy internet telephony services so that they can have confidence
in the way that an ITSPA member will do business with them.
ITSPA members are required to comply with current legislative and regulatory requirements supplemented by the ITSPA Code of Practice, which provides guidance and information to members and their customers.
To give customers even more confidence, in the unlikely event that a complaint cannot be settled locally, the ITSPA Code of Practice contains an easily accessible dispute resolution scheme for the purpose of bringing such complaint to a satisfactory conclusion.
The group feature allows you to combine some of your extensions so that they ring together when called. This is useful if your business is organised into departments with more than one person in each department or if some of your people wish to work from home as well as the office (no need to set diverts or call different numbers.)
They can be used with our Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system which is to be released shortly (ie 'press 1 for Sales, 2 for Support etc) or it can be used on its own to direct calls from several incoming numbers to groups of extensions; an 0800 number directed to several phones in the Sales department or an 0870 number to several support engineers for example.
Go to 'Your Account', 'Your PBX'. At the bottom of the page, under 'Extension number set-up,' click on the 'Call Groups' button. You will see all your extensions laid out vertically and 10 available groups horizontally. The groups you have not yet bought yet are greyed out.
Tick the extensions you wish to be grouped together (ie those that you wish to ring simultaneously when called). Save.
Now click the ‘Go back to PBX' button and look under the ‘Inbound Phone Number Set-up'. In the drop down menu next to the telephone number that you wish to direct to the group of extensions you have just made choose Group 1 (or whatever number group you have used). Save.
Now whenever that number is called those extensions in your new group will ring, wherever they are.
