Our Company, The Phoenix Pattern & Tool Co Ltd, have been customers of Birmingham Telecom since they started out. They have replaced our phone system 3 times, recently bringing us into the 21st Century. The 3CX system that we have now is user friendly and the app enables working from home much more convenient. Special thanks to Andy for always getting the right product to suit us and Shaun for the time and effort put in with us during and after the installation, Dan and Lee for attention given quickly to any of our queries. A great job, I have no hesitation recommending Birmingham Telecom.
