Business Phone System in Liverpool and Merseyside

If your business wants a business phone system in Liverpool that clients and partners can always get through on, then give us a ring and let’s talk it through. Our team brings decades of experience, and we will help your callers feel at home from the moment you pick up.

Conversations sound clear, and callers are routed exactly as you have requested. Your team can use a desk handset, Microsoft Teams, the mobile app or a laptop, in the Commercial District, in a Baltic Triangle studio or at home in Crosby.

Give our friendly UK-based engineers a call on 0151 559 9010.

A VoIP Provider in Liverpool With Its Feet on the Ground

Liverpool firms rarely switch phone supplier, and with clients and partners ringing all day, the move has to be smooth. A solid VoIP provider in Liverpool keeps your 0151 numbers safe and lets your people carry on as if nothing has changed.

VoIP sends your calls over your internet line, and the old copper connection can go. You may hear it called hosted telephony or a hosted PBX, and staff can answer in the office, at home or on the train.

Check for free porting, phones that arrive configured and an engineer you know answering the support line. As your VoIP provider in Liverpool, Blake Telecom gives you all three.

The Docks to the Baltic Triangle: Who We Help

We look after shipping agents near the docks, research teams in the Knowledge Quarter, solicitors around Castle Street and creative agencies on Jamaica Street, and we plan each business phone system in Liverpool around the people who answer it.

Our first conversation covers who answers, which building or dock they work from and the software they rely on. Weighing up phone systems in Liverpool should be simple, and we always talk in plain English.

Your branches in Bootle, Crosby, Birkenhead, Wallasey and Southport can all join one business phone system in Liverpool, and a call taken on Old Hall Street can be passed to a Birkenhead colleague in seconds.

Scroll down for the features Liverpool firms use most.

One 0151 Number for the Pier Head, the Docks and Home

An 0151 number tells your callers you are based on Merseyside. If it can be ported, we bring it onto our hosted service on a date you choose.

Porting your 0151 numbers across is free of charge.

From then on, a single call can ring a desk phone, a laptop and a mobile together, and your customers see the same number when you call them.

A broker at a meeting in London and a researcher at home in Crosby can both pick up 0151 calls through the app.

Calls you make show the Liverpool office number, not somebody’s own mobile.

✓ Keep your 0151 number where porting allows
✓ Join the city, the Wirral and home workers
✓ Answer on a laptop or a mobile
✓ Pick the day your number moves

A Scouse-Friendly Guide to Cloud Phone Terms

VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) turns your calls into data that travels across your broadband, rather than over a copper line.

Calls sound clear, which is why shipping agents, labs and studios now run on VoIP phone systems in Liverpool, and our VoIP guide covers the basics.

With Unified Communications as a Service, or UCaaS, your staff get one app for calls, video, chat and a shared contacts list. All the detail is on our UCaaS page.

Picture an importer in Chester ringing your 0151 number about a container held at Seaforth.

Your receptionist can message the customs specialist, pass the call to the shipping desk or start a video call in the same app, and an AI summary records what your team will chase when it ends.

CCaaS (Contact Centre as a Service) is made for booking lines, shipping desks and customer service floors that talk to callers all day.

You get call queues, skill-based routing, live wallboards and quality scores, and you can read about each one in our UCaaS and CCaaS solutions overview.

What Liverpool Firms Get From a Business Phone System in Liverpool

A dental practice in Allerton, a cocktail bar on Bold Street and a haulage firm at Speke all use a business phone system in Liverpool in their own way, and we switch on what your business needs.

  • Auto Attendant (IVR)

    A friendly recorded welcome lets callers press for sales, support or accounts.

  • Call Queues

    At busy times, callers hold in order, and you decide what plays, how long is acceptable and the separate message for after hours.

  • Call Routing

    Routing rules pass each call to a named colleague, a department or a branch across the Mersey, based on the hour and who is signed in.

  • Mobile and Desktop Calling

    Account managers visiting Wirral clients pick up the business number through our app, and we also supply business mobiles for your team.

  • Call Recording

    Call recordings help with coaching, quality reviews and complaints. Each Liverpool recording is held in warm storage for a month, or for half a year if you ask. Older files can move into a ten-year cold archive.

  • CRM Integration

    Connect a supported CRM and your Liverpool customer’s file appears while the phone is still ringing.

  • Microsoft Teams Integration

    If your team already works in Microsoft Teams, direct routing lets them make and take 0151 calls right inside it.

  • Support From People Who Know Your Setup

    For changes or a helping hand, just phone 0151 559 9010 and talk to a friendly UK engineer.

  • Security and Compliance

    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.

For illustration purposes only. Screens are examples and do not show real systems or data.

Help for Merseyside’s Busiest Phone Teams

Retailers, shipping lines, travel firms and NHS services across Merseyside run some of the busiest phone lines in the North West. When your own lines reach that pace, queues and a wallboard can be added to the account you already have.

The wallboard shows your supervisors how many callers are waiting, the longest wait and the day’s answer rate, next to the agents free to take a call. The contact centre solutions page has more.

Talk to us about your contact centre
  • All Channels in a Single Queue

    Calls, emails, chats and social messages from your customers all arrive in one shared inbox for your agents to work through in order.

  • Skills-Based Routing

    Each caller is put through to an agent who knows the subject.

  • Live Wallboards

    Team leaders can follow waiting times in real time, and listen in, coach quietly or take over a call.

  • Forecasting, Rotas and Call Scoring

    Your shift patterns are based on real call volumes, and call scoring shows where your agents would benefit from support.

  • Bulk Reminders and Updates

    Your agents can keep taking calls while booking reminders and service news go out in one batch.

  • On-Screen Agent Prompts

    Helpful prompts appear on screen during a call and help newer agents give accurate answers.

  • Searchable Call Recordings

    Look up any recording by date or number and play it back to check what was agreed.

  • AI Receptionist and Call Summaries

    An AI receptionist handles routine Liverpool calls and transfers, then saves a short summary of each one.

Phones for Liverpool’s Maritime, Health and Creative Firms

Liverpool grew around its port, and shipping, logistics and marine insurance still matter here. Today the city also has health research, two big universities, game studios, shops and a busy tourist trade.

Liverpool’s Move to Cloud Phones

Liverpool firms who ask about telephone systems in Liverpool usually have three reasons for moving.

Hybrid working. A paralegal working from home in Wavertree answers the office number, with shared contacts and call history right there on screen.

Business continuity. If your office loses power or broadband, your customers can still reach you. Calls move to mobiles or another site and the working day carries on, with no second system to pay for.

Voicemail to email. A missed call arrives by email as an audio clip, ready to play between jobs.

Liverpool and the Copper Line Shutdown

The UK’s copper phone network is closing on 31 January 2027. Plenty of Liverpool warehouses and older office blocks still have alarms, lift lines, door panels and card readers on copper, and it is worth writing them down now.

Because it works over broadband, a hosted business phone system in Liverpool gives your staff routing, voicemail and apps on day one.

We test your connection, list any equipment still using copper and plan the switch around your shifts. Eligible 0151 numbers usually move with you, and the providers of your alarms and payment terminals can confirm what they need.
