A BT Business alternative.
Moving away from a large incumbent? Here's why UK businesses choose Telexico for phone systems, VoIP and connectivity — engineered, UK-supported, and without mid-contract surprises.
Common reasons businesses look for a BT Business alternative.
These are the patterns we hear most often — see which apply to you.
Mid-contract price rises
Large incumbents commonly apply annual, inflation-linked increases part-way through a contract. With Telexico the price is agreed up front, with no mid-contract price rises.
Support that knows you
Big-provider support often means general call centres and ticket queues. With Telexico you get UK engineers and a named contact who already knows your setup.
PSTN & ISDN switch-off
With the old phone network closing, many businesses on legacy lines must move to modern VoIP before 2027. We plan and run that migration with zero downtime.
What you get with Telexico instead.
Independent, UK-engineered, and built around your operation.
Engineered, not resold
We design the whole phone system around how you actually work — call flows, hunt groups, failover — not a generic package with your name pasted on.
UK engineers, named contact
Support from our Wolverhampton base, not an offshore script. Whoever answers already has your setup in front of them.
Carrier-agnostic & independent
We're not tied to one network. Your phone system can run over Openreach, CityFibre or another carrier — chosen for your site, not a sales target.
Moving to Telexico, with zero downtime.
No lost numbers, no day without phones.
Every number ported
Keep all your existing numbers. Porting is included and we cut over with no loss of service.
Zero-downtime cutover
We build and test the new system in parallel, then switch when you're ready — never a day without phones.
We do the heavy lifting
We map your current setup, plan the migration and configure everything before go-live, so it works on day one.
Frequently asked questions
Can Telexico keep our existing phone numbers?
Yes. Number porting is included — we move all your geographic and non-geographic numbers across with no loss of service.
Do you have mid-contract price rises?
No. The price we agree is the price you pay for the term — no annual inflation-linked increases part-way through.
Can you migrate us off ISDN or PSTN before the switch-off?
Yes. We plan and run the move from legacy lines to modern VoIP or a cloud phone system with zero downtime, ahead of the 2027 switch-off.
Do we have to change our broadband too?
No. We're carrier-agnostic — your phone system can run over your existing connectivity, or we can check whether better-value options are available at your address.
Where is your support based?
In the UK. Our engineers are based in Wolverhampton and you get a named contact rather than a general call centre.
