Hey guys i thought id add my 2cents as i was targeted by cold callers and various marketing company's
and i found a way to stop them completely and free up my business time at the same time..
I use a company called National Call Service
What they do is act as a cold call blocker but at the same call answering service.. so I dont get bothered when im on the job as im a plumber and its annoying when my phone rings.. but any genuine enquires get sent by txt or emailed across for me to deal with when i get a minute!
I have a mate who has a bnb who uses it aswell! Defo recommend this service if your a 1 man band or just a couple of ya
I only pay em 30quid a month too... so way more cheaper than hiring a receptionist! and now i look the big time haha
there website is nationalcallservice co uk

Thanks for that Ryan. I was pretty sure that you must have signed up with them fairly recently because the website was only created on the 7th of August. In fact you did well to find that site bearing in mind that there are other companies offering similar services who have been around for more than 7 weeks.
http://whois.domaintools.com/nationalcallservice.co.uk
This website is registered to somebody with the surname 'Adam'. The company who run it, Communication Fort Ltd, briefly had a director with the surname 'Adam'.

Debt Claims Plus Ltd, who run the Premier Claims Plus website which processes PPI claims in return for an extortionate 20% plus VAT of the sum claimed, share the same address as National Call Service. They also have a director with the surname 'Adam'. Coincidence or what?

Personally I think shelling out £360 every year for a service like this is a complete rip-off. Any sensible businessman worried about cold calls but at the same time missing customer calls would spend less than £100 on a call blocker and use voicemail on their mobile.
But thanks for your 2 cents anyway, Ryan.0 -
I searched.. Stop cold calls and not one company came up similar pal it was all registry crap and tps stuff that doesn't work! so i dunno where u got that from?! Yes theres call answering if thats what you mean but they charge a fortune im happy with 30quid a month,serves me well other companies charge by the call if u actually look into it
and it would end up 60-100quid amonth so 360 isnt all that bad.. And im very sensible thank you ' if you ran a business like mine you would know u cant answer the phone at times and voicemail isnt good enough because if people search online for a plumber and find me and i dont answer they just call someone else! more than likely my competitor.. So if i gain 1 extra job from it ive covered my costs.. They called me and sold it to me tbh... And whats with alll the fbi stuff?! If you wanna find out about the company call them lol no point hiding behind a screen thinking you know it all.. Try the real world
