Answer calls and take a message

By using our message taking service you are creating a professional image for your company by letting your customers speak to a live person rather than an answerphone machine. Our telephone answering service is based in the UK and we never outsource, meaning the voice of your company is familiar and local. We like to think of ourselves as an extension of your business. Unlike other providers we are not a large call centre. You will be issued with a small team, allowing your clients to build a rapport with the same friendly voices each time they call.

Support

Switchboard Service

Like any switchboard service we answer the call, find out who the caller wishes to speak to then transfer the call through to the relevant individual or department. However as we are based remotely then it cuts down on your costs, and you don’t need to worry about always having someone to cover the phones.

Appointment & Order Taking

Do you run a service-based industry but have difficulty answering your calls or making bookings into your calendar? By using our appointment booking service we can provide you with a bespoke service to make sure that your calls get answered and your customers get booked in with a professional and timely manner.

Along with making bookings we can also take payments over the phone for you, simply provide us with your portal login details and we can take payments for you.

Features

How it works

Once signed up we provide you with a telephone number. You can either advertise this number, or if you already have a business number simply divert the calls through to us as and when you need us to answer

Answering calls

With our call answering service we will answer calls in your company name and advise the caller that you will give them a call back. However our service is flexible so you can amend the script and how we deal with the calls.

Value for money

All our plans are month-to-month so you are never tied into long term contracts. In addition we don’t charge for sales calls, wrong numbers, or calls under 20 seconds.

How are messages passed

Most customers prefer us advising any calls that they are out of the office at the moment and we take a message. We can then email the message (free), text (10p) or transfer the call through (from 12p per minute).

Clyde Offices provided us with a consistent and really good service for almost 4 years. Gerry was always at the end of the phone to help us with our queries. I would recommend Clyde Offices if you are looking to add value to your office needs, i.e. outsources answering service etc.

I was looking for a mailbox provider as I am studying and I live abroad. I found Clyde Offices and they were very helpful in answering my questions. Very reasonably priced and would allow me to receive a few parcels. I highly recommend them and I will be using them for many years. The staff were very attentive and friendly.

This is a great idea if you have your own business but would like an address in the city centre on top of, or instead of your own address or other location.Allows you to advertise as being based in the city centre.Anytime I had to contact the offices the staff were great and very helpful. I didn't need to contact them much at all because the process is so easy and straightforward.

I hired a mailing address through Clyde Offices for two months and the service was hugely helpful during that time. I rented some camping equipment for my hiking trip and could only find it for mail delivery; because I flew in from the USA, I needed an address in Glasgow and it so happens their office is very near the train station so this plan worked out perfectly as I set out Monday morning for my trip via train. In addition to easy communications and set up, the service worked with me on my order so that delivery time and pick up were arranged and I had no issues arriving and picking up as planned despite an awkward delay between delivery and pick up. My box was also large, which was certainly an inconvenience for them to hold for a week, but they understood my situation. I recommend Clyde Offices if you are seeking a mailing address in Glasgow.

Alan and the team have been a real find for me. They do my reports and deal with all my mail for me. They automatically scan my mail over to me so that I can pick it up on the go, I could not recommend them enough for a small business like me. It's true what they say if you don't have an admin person then you are the admin person!
