Virtual numbers

Here at Best Reception we do more than just answer calls, we also offer property managers the option of using a cloud-based telephone number.

Essentially, this means your business phone number is not linked to a landline or physical premises. Discover the benefits of combining our call handling service with a virtual number. There are four types of virtual numbers to choose from:

Local numbers: these provide your property business with a local presence, without the need to move premises. Tenants will feel they can get issues sorted sooner by calling a local number.

Freephone numbers: free calls for customers using a UK landline or mobile number. Provides tenants with an extra layer of customer service, but your business will be charged for the calls.

National numbers: these are non-geographic 0345 numbers with the same charges as UK landlines. Perfect for property businesses with national coverage.

0330 numbers: non-geographic numbers charged the same as UK local rate numbers. Created by regulator Ofcom as an alternative to premium 08 numbers, 0330 numbers are not linked to locations.

I've used Best Reception for around 1 year now. I've found the service superb. My customers comment on how cheerful and professional the call handling is. They are always looking to help and do their job better. How proficient Best Reception is at their job has even helped me from time to time with the extra details noted on conversations by the call handlers. Excellent service and well worth it's money.

Best reception have been a godsend to our small clinic in Gateshead.We were recommended them by our business coach as we were having difficulty in booking patients in and guiding them to our premises.Completely changed the game having them step in. Our stress levels dropped massively!Definitely use them!

I used Best Reception for 2 years during a particularly busy period when my location-based Reception was unable to use Cliniko as I moved away from a paper-based diary. Knowing someone would answer the telephone quickly, reliably and make bookings on my diary accurately while I was busy with patients was reassuring and took a load of stress off me. Any issues that arose were minor, quickly resolved with the team managers, communication was great. Overall I wouldn't hesitate to use them again - great service & good value for money.

Efficient and friendly service. 😊 Edit - 2021 a year later -Best reception continually give an excellent service and have been so supportive during this very difficult year. Also more recently I have had 2 patients in the last week comment what a pleasant receptionist I have - and how friendly helpful and clear she is. Well done best reception staff!
Foot Factor has been working with Best Reception for many years - they are an amazing team, very professional and always ready (and able!) to adapt to regular changes we make in our diary. Our clients appreciate an easy booking service, they're surprised not to find the receptionist at the clinic when they come for their appointment. We appreciate a small, friendly, dedicated team who really know Foot Factor well. Thank you!
