If you are looking for a business phone system in Glasgow that stays dependable when the lines are at their busiest, then have a chat with our team. We bring decades of experience to the job, and we will help your callers feel looked after from the first ring to the last word.
Each call arrives in clear HD audio and goes straight where you want it to. Staff can answer from a desk handset, from Microsoft Teams, through our mobile app or at a Windows PC or Mac, in the office, at home or out and about.
Pick up the phone and speak to our friendly team on 0141 726 0740.
Changing phone supplier is not something most Glasgow firms do often, and the people ringing you should never feel the change. A good VoIP provider in Glasgow lets you keep your 0141 numbers and gets your staff talking on the new system smoothly.
In plain terms, VoIP sends your calls across your broadband rather than down a copper line, and it also goes by names such as cloud telephony or hosted PBX. Your people can pick up on a handset, a laptop or a smartphone.
Check that porting is free, that handsets turn up configured, that call recording suits your sector’s rules and that the people on the support line are the engineers who built your setup. Blake Telecom ticks each of those boxes as your VoIP provider in Glasgow.

Our Glasgow customers include fund administrators in the IFSD, fashion retailers off Buchanan Street, production companies at Pacific Quay and engineering suppliers on the Clyde, and each business phone system in Glasgow we build starts with the people who actually answer the calls.
We start by learning who answers, where they are based and which systems they use all day. Sorting out phone systems in Glasgow should feel simple, and we talk in everyday language rather than acronyms.
Branches in Paisley, Clydebank, East Kilbride, Hamilton and Cumbernauld can run on one business phone system in Glasgow. Someone who rings the city centre can be passed to a colleague in Paisley with a single click.
The features Glasgow firms rely on most are set out below.
A 0141 number says you are a Glasgow business before anyone says hello. Once the port is approved, we move it to the cloud on a date you are happy with.
Porting your 0141 numbers across is free of charge.
After that, one call can ring desk phones, PCs and mobiles together, and when your team rings out, the Glasgow number is what people see.
An adviser at home in Bearsden, a manager at a conference in the SEC and a rep on the train to Edinburgh can all answer the 0141 line from the app.
Nobody has to hand out a personal mobile, because outgoing calls carry your company number.
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) carries your calls as data over the internet rather than down a copper line.
The sound is sharp and steady, which is why contact centres, law firms and retailers across the city now run on VoIP phone systems in Glasgow. Our VoIP guide covers the background.
UCaaS (Unified Communications as a Service) puts calls, video meetings, chat and your staff directory into a single app. Our UCaaS page goes into more detail.
Picture an insurance client ringing your 0141 number about a claim on a wet Monday morning.
Without leaving the app, the adviser can message the claims handler, hand the call to a senior colleague or switch to video with the client, and once the call ends an AI summary sets out what was agreed.
CCaaS, short for Contact Centre as a Service, is built for agents who spend most of their day helping customers.
That brings queues, skill matching, live wallboards and quality scoring, and each one is set out in our UCaaS and CCaaS solutions overview.

Plenty of Glasgow offices start on UCaaS, which handles calls, meetings and chat, then add contact centre tools once the phones get busier, without changing provider.

Call 0141 726 0740or request a quoteAn accountancy practice in the Merchant City, a boutique on Sauchiehall Street and a fabricator in Hillington all need different things from a business phone system in Glasgow, and we set yours up around the work you actually do.
A friendly recorded menu points callers to sales, support or accounts.
When the lines are busy, callers join a queue, and you decide on the hold music, the maximum wait and the after-hours message.
Your routing rules pass calls to a person, a department or a second office, depending on the day, the time and who is working.
Staff visiting clients or working from home answer the company number through the app on a PC or phone, and we also supply business mobiles.
Recording supports coaching, compliance checks and complaint handling. The first month of recordings stays in warm storage, with an option to keep them 180 days, and archive copies can be kept in cold storage for ten years.
Link a supported CRM, and the caller’s record appears on screen before you even answer.
For firms that run on Microsoft Teams, we connect your 0141 numbers through direct routing, right inside the app your staff already use.
Want something changed or need a hand? Our UK support desk is on 0141 726 0740.
The platform runs on infrastructure certified to ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II and Cyber Essentials Plus, and both the NCSC overview and IASME’s guidance explain what those schemes cover.

Glasgow has long been one of the UK’s main bases for contact centres, serving banks, insurers, utilities and retailers. As your own call numbers climb, we can turn on queue and wallboard features within the same service.
Supervisors get a wallboard showing who is queuing, the longest wait, today’s answered calls and the status of each agent, and there is more on our contact centre solutions page about how it all works.
Talk to us about your contact centreFor illustration purposes only. Screens are examples and do not show real systems or data.
Phone calls, emails, web chats and social media messages arrive in one list, and agents work through them in turn.
Callers are matched with an agent who can fix their query on the first call.
Supervisors watch waiting times change in real time and can listen in or step in when an agent needs support.
Rotas are built from real call data, and quality scores show team leaders where coaching will help most.
Send payment reminders and service notices in one batch while your agents carry on taking calls.
Prompts appear on screen mid-call and give new starters the confidence to handle trickier conversations.
Look up a recording by date or number and replay it to check exactly what was said.
An AI receptionist handles routine questions and routes callers, then files a written summary of each conversation.
Your existing phones carry on as normal while we get things ready. We begin by agreeing who needs a line, which numbers are moving, your broadband and your opening hours.
We talk through your existing system, how calls reach you and where they need to end up.
Behind the scenes, our engineers build your extensions, departments and call routes, then test them before anything is shipped.
Your desk phones turn up configured and come to life the moment they are connected.
Your numbers transfer on the agreed day, and your customers get through without interruption.
A short, friendly training session covers the features your team will use most.
Most of the work is finished before the phones arrive, the switch itself is quick, and our engineers look after the technical side.

Call 0141 726 0740or request a quoteGlasgow is Scotland’s largest city, and its retail sector is the biggest in the UK outside central London. Once famous for Clyde shipbuilding, the city now has a large financial quarter in the IFSD and naval shipyards that still build on the river.
Broadcasters and digital agencies work out of Pacific Quay, while the Scottish Event Campus fills the waterfront with conferences and gigs. We shape your phone system around how your business really works.
Banks, insurers and wealth managers in the IFSD get secure routing, with recordings kept to FCA rules.

Call 0141 726 0740or request a quoteGlasgow’s contact centres and financial firms handle high call volumes under close regulatory scrutiny, often with teams split between the IFSD, other offices and home.
Blake Telecom puts those teams on one number plan with a shared directory, and the right adviser can answer at their desk, at home or on the train to Edinburgh, all on one business phone system in Glasgow.
Floors in the IFSD, a second office in Paisley and home workers share extensions and transfer calls instantly.
Advisers pick up the Glasgow number on the app from home, and their status shows up for everyone back at the office.

Hybrid working. An adviser at home in Bearsden handles calls to the office number, with the shared directory and recent call history open on a laptop.
Business continuity. A power cut or broadband fault at the office no longer means silent phones. Calls switch to mobiles or another branch while your staff carry on, with no standby system to pay for.
Voicemail to email. Any message you miss is emailed to you as a recording, ready to play when it suits you.

We fix almost all faults remotely, and if your Glasgow office needs a visit, we will book one for you.
Since 2004, we have been helping Scottish and UK firms move off copper, and our business broadband and leased lines keep your call quality high.
Analogue phone lines are being retired by Openreach on 31 January 2027. Before that date, make a list of anything that still relies on a phone line, such as alarms, lift lines, door entry panels and card readers.
Since it runs over your broadband, a hosted business phone system in Glasgow gives you call routing, voicemail and the apps from day one.
We test your broadband, track down anything still on copper and plan the changeover around your team. Eligible 0141 numbers normally move across too, and the firms that supply your alarms or card readers can confirm what they need.

Blake Telecom have been supplying our business communications for well over 10 years. We have found both their systems and support to be fully robust, and they have given an excellent service throughout, with value for money for their products. Their approach to helping our business has always been excellent from every aspect and I would highly recommend their services.
Blake Telecom have been paramount to the growth of our business by continuing to offer our business the very highest level of service. The equipment we have been supplied has been extremely flexible, allowing us to adapt as our needs change. Blake Telecom’s knowledge and expertise have been very professional, and we look forward to working together on our future projects.
Blake Telecom have revolutionised the way we operate. They have gone the extra mile in making the setup process painless, and it was easy to install. Any questions are dealt with quickly and efficiently, and the staff are a pleasure to deal with. I truly wish we had found them years ago. We recommend Blake Telecom to many of our suppliers and even customers whenever we can.
When we moved to rural office space, without the benefit of reasonable broadband speed or any telephony services in place, Blake Telecom directed us to alternatives, and the solution we have is excellent. 4G Wi-Fi VoIP serves our current needs and situation perfectly. The team were succinct in their explanation of what we could achieve, providing something promptly and getting this set up with minimum fuss and delay.

Large customer service teams in Glasgow can build up thousands of recordings each week. Personal data should only be kept as long as it is needed, and a clear retention setting makes that easy to follow.
Retention You Set. Choose how long VoIP call recording keeps calls: a month, 180 days, or a ten-year archive for the records you must hold.
Data Minimisation. Only the users you select are recorded, which supports the principles of UK GDPR and keeps unnecessary data out of storage.
Cards Kept Out of Recordings. PCI DSS compliant capture stops card numbers being captured in the first place, keeping them out of your recordings altogether.
Certified and UK-Based. Glasgow recordings are held in UK data centres on a platform with ISO 27001, ISO 27017, SOC 2 and Cyber Essentials. Video meetings are encrypted end to end.
These are the questions Glasgow companies bring to us most. You can also browse our blog or contact the team.
